More details
NHS should do more tests and ultrasounds along with the annual checks up for breast cancer.
Mine Cancer was missed and still doesn’t appear on the mammogram pictures.
Also,the waiting times for each appointment it’s too long,and makes ppl with cancer more anxious .
The waiting time for any appointments in the case of cancer it’s radicolous.

This petition was rejected
Why was this petition rejected?
It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not directly responsible for.
We are sorry to hear about your experience, but petitions must call for a specific action that the UK Government or Parliament are directly responsible for.
Decisions about annual scans are a matter for the NHS, not the Government or Parliament. As a result it is not possible for the Government or Parliament to take the action you have requested.
We could accept a petition calling on the Government to fund annual ultrasounds to check for breast cancer, if that's what you want to happen.
We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
