A few of the things people often wonder about before booking. If there's something else on your mind, just ask, we're always happy to talk it through.

Any time you notice a change, a lump, a change in shape or skin, or anything that isn't usual for you, it's worth coming in. It's also worth a check if you have a family history you'd like to discuss, or would simply like some peace of mind.

We don't perform mammograms on site, but depending on your age and risk we can talk you through whether one is appropriate and help you arrange it through BreastScreen or a radiology provider. A breast check with us is a good place to start.

Most breast lumps turn out to be nothing serious, but any new lump should always be checked, so please book in. We'd far rather see you and be able to reassure you, or act early if needed.

We'll talk with you about any changes you've noticed, your history and your risk, and carry out a careful examination if that's helpful. It's also a good chance to learn what's normal for you and what to look for between visits.
