Ovacome Surveys 2009

August 2009

One of Ovacome's main missions is to provide a voice for those affected by the disease. Our surveys in the past have been widely distributed and warmly received. Your experiences have informed the Department of Health, as well as researchers and professional bodies. The results have been presented at international meetings as well as local events. Our 2006 survey remains the largest of its kind in the UK.

In preparation for ovarian cancer awareness month 2010, we wanted to learn more about your path to diagnosis. What was good? What could have been done better?

We would like your help in completing two quick online surveys. These surveys focus on what the barriers to your diagnosis were, and how we can remove them.

One called The Ovacome GP Experience Survey, which can be found here.

The second is called The Diagnosis Pathway Survey, which can be found here.

If you can, please do complete them both as they focus on different aspects of your diagnosis experiences.

The surveys are completely anonymous; we will not be able to trace the origins at all. Please do answer the questions as comprehensively as possible - the more we understand, the better we can use your experiences to help other women with ovarian cancer.

If you have any questions, please do feel free to call us or email us.

Thank you so much.
