Buckingham Palace previously confirmed Friday that the monarch was at medical facility for the procedure, noting in a statement that he was admitted to a London hospital for scheduled treatment.
"His Majesty would like to thank all those who have sent their good wishes over the past week and is delighted to learn that his diagnosis is having a positive impact on public health awareness," Buckingham Palace shared in the statement.
