Clinical interests
Mr Bijan Ansari is a Consultant Breast Surgeon with more than 16 years’ experience as a substantive NHS consultant. Trained in leading breast surgery centres in both the UK and the USA, he specialises in the assessment and treatment of breast symptoms, including breast cancer and benign breast conditions. He has a particular interest in oncoplastic breast surgery. While effective cancer treatment remains his outmost priority, he uses reconstructive techniques, where appropriate, to help preserve the shape and appearance of the breast.
Many people referred to a breast clinic are understandably worried about what their symptoms might mean. Mr Ansari believes that careful assessment, accurate diagnosis and clear communication are essential. He aims to provide sufficient time during consultations for patients to discuss their concerns, ask questions and fully understand the results of any investigations and the treatment options available to them. When helpful, he uses diagrams and written information to explain diagnoses and treatments in a straightforward and accessible way. He recognises that every patient is different and takes care to ensure that decisions are made together, taking into account individual circumstances and preferences. As a core member of the Rivers Hospital Breast Multidisciplinary Team, he works closely with specialist colleagues to ensure that treatment recommendations are tailored to each patient and based on current best practice.
