Furthermore, patients undergoing surgery are seen in a pre-operative consent clinic slot to explore and confirm treatment plan.
More than 95% of procedures are undertaken as a day surgery case. We provide benign breast surgery, simple wide local excisions, a wide range of Oncoplastic procedures and mastectomies with or without immediate reconstruction. Reconstructive techniques offered in house are implant based and LD reconstruction.
