Sorry about delay, computer problem ...
In my personal experience, "In the United Kingdom, Ambulatory Care (AC) is a term that has become synonymous with the cancer specialty.
" is an over-generalisation, and this sentence is likely to alarm patients or their families.
At Royal Lancaster Infirmary the Ambulatory Care Unit is associated with Acute Medicine and is a one-stop shop whereby patients can come in for a day of tests, scans, etc rather than trek to and from a series of outpatients visits. My own rare disease was initially diagnosed there in 2017, after referral from my GP who was concerned about blood results, but nothing to do with oncology. This at Chester sounds similar.
Please consider re-wording this article, and perhaps retitling as "Ambulatory care (oncology)". Pam D 09:37, 5 February 2024 (UTC) (updated 12:25, 5 February 2024 (UTC) to remove unnecessary welcome message for experienced page-creator)
