Private Patients (those who are paying for their own treatment and people with private medical insurance) can now access the Pinehill Hospital Rapid Diagnosis Breast Clinic. The Clinic has been developed to help ease the anxiety of breast symptoms, such as the discovery of a breast lump. You will see one of our highly experienced and skilled Consultant Breast Surgeons; Mr Neil Johns or Miss Harleen Deol.
The Rapid Diagnosis Breast Clinic is held on Mondays and Thursdays.
A dedicated team of specialists is on standby in the Breast Clinic to care for your specific needs when you are worried about breast problems.
The professional team includes:
A Consultant Breast Surgeon will lead your care.
During your visit the surgeon will examine you and where needed refer you for a Mammogram and/or Breast Ultrasound.
If necessary a fine needle test may be carried out to exclude any abnormalities within a lump that has been discovered.
In most cases you will return the same day to see your Consultant as the result will be available on the day, but occasionally further tests are needed to give a conclusive result. If this should happen you will be given a date for your follow up appointment prior to leaving the clinic.
It is important to emphasise that more often that not the result will be normal and you will leave the clinic with complete peace of mind.
If however an abnormality is detected you will receive the immediate support of a breast care nurse counsellor and early access to treatment.
