A young doctor who is dying of cancer has described how patients are ‘dehumanised’ by NHS hospitals.

Kate Granger said she had been left psychologically scarred after being told her cancer had spread by a junior doctor who did not even look her in the eye.

The 32-year-old also said that consultants and other staff referred to patients within earshot by their types of illness or bed numbers.
