Your Visit to the Breast Centre

At the breast centre, each person is unique and visits are tailored to your personal needs. Not everyone will need the same procedures and individual clinic visits will vary in length. Your appointment may take up to 3 hours.

We are currently inviting women who are over 40 and who have not had a recent mammogram, for a mammogram before their outpatient clinic appointment.

Even if this mammogram is normal, you will still need to attend an outpatient clinic appointment to see a breast surgeon. This is because 1 in 10 cancers are not visible on a mammogram and in these cases, the cancers are picked up by the surgeon’s examination.

Any other tests that are needed, such as ultrasound scan and biopsies, can usually be done at the same clinic appointment.
