Buckingham Palace released a message from King Charles to “brilliant doctors” amid his ongoing cancer treatment.
The monarch, who has been diagnosed with an undisclosed form of cancer since the beginning of 2024, has taken several initiatives to address the struggles of the survivors and recognize the medical team and health professionals for their work.
Charles, who is patron of King’s College London, went out to visit the NHS hospital using new technology to treat patients.
“A big thank you to all the brilliant doctors, nurses and health workers working to save lives and support wellbeing as we celebrate 300 years of Guy’s Hospital,” read the message from the King’s team.
“At the hospital’s Cancer Center, the King spent time with chemotherapy patients, nurses and doctors. This year marks six decades of oncology at Guy’s, and the center consolidates services that were once spread across 13 sites,” it continued.
“At the King’s College Innovation Hub, His Majesty, Patron of King’s College London, heard how professors and students are using artificial intelligence and robotics to treat patients and to train the next generation of specialists who are shaping the future of cancer research.”
The update comes after a palace source revealed that Charles is “driven by duty” and “service” despite his cancer battle. They even revealed that his next travels are already underway.
