Ambulance Victoria chief to take extended leave following cancer surgery

Ambulance Victoria chief Tony Walker is taking extended personal leave.

It comes after he had bowel cancer surgery.

He now needs to undergo chemotherapy.

Walker shared his shock diagnosis with Neil Mitchell on 3AW earlier this year.

“I really wish him well, he’s a good man, Tony, and I think he’s a good chief executive,” Neil Mitchell said.
