What is the purpose of a breast clinic ?

The breast clinic offers a team approach to breast cancer treatment. Surgeons and
oncologists combine their expertise to decide on individualised treatment for every
patient, with the skills of the pathologist, radiotherapist, radiologist and plastic surgeon
at their disposal. All factors predicting the course of a patient's disease are taken into 
account to ensure optimal treatment.


Who should go to the breast clinic ?

	·   Anyone with a mammogram showing signs of malignancy.
	·   Anyone with family afflicted by cancer 
	     - prevention therapy is becoming a very important aspect of medicine.
	·   Anyone with a history of breast lumps that persist, are painfull or cause concern.
