The Cancellation of the oncology clinic at Letterkenny University Hospital for the second week in a row has been described as 'totally unacceptable'.
Sinn Fein TD Pearse Doherty says he has been contacted by affected patients and their families who are dismayed and worried of the effects that these delays will have on their treatment.
It is understood that the shortage of nurses is one of the contributing factors behind the cancellation of the service at LUH.
Deputy Doherty says he has contacted management at both Letterkenny University Hospital and the Saolta Healthcare Group. Speaking earlier to OceanFM news Deputy Doherty says the situation is completely unacceptable.
