Breast Care with a Leading Breast Clinic

Breast cancer is a common disease in New Zealand, occurring in one in nine women in their lifetime.

This can give rise to anxiety about whether you are at increased risk of developing breast cancer compared with other women and what to do if you find a change in your breast.

Most women do not have any breast symptoms or significant risk factors and their general practitioner can organise screening with mammography once they turn 40.

If you do have concerns about your breast cancer risk or think you have breast cancer symptoms, Breast Associates’ experienced specialists can help. We can discuss your breast cancer risk factors, assess your symptoms, arrange the most appropriate investigations and then plan any treatment, if needed.

Then a sensible and practical breast care regimen is set in place, tailored to your needs.

There are many reasons you may wish to see a breast specialist at Breast Associates:

• Breast pain
• Breast lump or thickening
• Breast infection
• Breast cancer risks
• Family history of breast cancer
• Suspected breast cancer
• Breast surgery
