Personalised Care
We understand some women may feel anxious about their breast diagnostic examination, so we have designed our services to ensure you feel comfortable, informed and supported every step of the way.
Sensitivity, support and understanding are at the heart of everything we do. Anyone who has been diagnosed with breast cancer will tell you how important it is to have expert specialist support from a multidisciplinary team.
Our team of health professionals are specifically trained to deliver the most innovative and comprehensive breast services.
Diagnosis, Treatment & Support
Breast cancer is a challenging illness. Your treatment plan may involve more than one treatment option, such as surgery, chemotherapy and radiotherapy.
Our Breast Physicians and Breast Care Nurses will provide you with every level of support and information you need.
We want to ensure you and your loved ones understand your diagnosis, so you can make informed decisions and have the best positive health outcome.
Support
Our Breast Care Nurses will provide you information about breast cancer and support you by providing expert care. Their role is to support you through every step from the time of your diagnosis and throughout your treatment.
Our Breast Care Nurses provide support by:
- Discussing your treatment plan with you
- Listening to any concerns and answering any questions you or your family may have
- Helping coordinate your treatment plan
- Discussing potential side effects with you
- Sharing information about what to expect throughout your treatment period
- Referring you to other hospital and community services as required to ensure you are aware of what is available to you.
Wellness Programs
We have wellness and support programs specifically designed to support your health and wellbeing both during and after your breast cancer treatment. These programs include one-on-one support and group support.
