​You Are Not Alone

​

Hearing the words “you have breast cancer” can be overwhelming. It’s normal to feel frightened, confused, or uncertain about what lies ahead. At Breast & Wellness, we understand that behind every diagnosis is a woman with a life, a family, and goals that matter.

 

You are not alone in this journey.

​

Our role is to walk beside you — providing expert care, clear information, and compassionate support so you can move forward with confidence.

 

The good news is that breast cancer is treatable, and outcomes continue to improve every year. With the right plan, coordinated care, and a team that truly listens, most women go on to live full, healthy, and meaningful lives.

​

Understanding Your Diagnosis

​

Breast cancer occurs when cells in the breast grow abnormally and form a mass or lump. There are several types of breast cancer, and each behaves differently.

 

Your pathology results — including the type, grade, and receptor status (ER, PR, HER2) — help guide treatment decisions. Knowing these details allows your care team to create a personalised plan that is effective, safe, and suited to your circumstances.

 

Our priority is to make sure you understand your diagnosis, feel supported in every decision, and know what to expect at each stage of treatment.

​

Your Care Team

 

At Breast & Wellness, your treatment is managed by a multidisciplinary team of specialists who work together to provide seamless, coordinated care.

This includes:

 

• Breast surgeon – overseeing surgery and coordination of care.

• Medical oncologist – managing chemotherapy and systemic therapies.

• Radiation oncologist – providing precision radiotherapy where needed.

• Radiologists and pathologists – ensuring accurate imaging and diagnosis.

• Breast care nurses and support staff – offering practical and emotional support.

​

Collaboration ensures that every aspect of your care is aligned and every decision is made with your best interest in mind.

​

Treatment Options

​

Treatment is individualised — no two cancers, or women, are the same.

Your plan may include one or a combination of the following:

 

• Surgery – to remove the tumour through breast-conserving surgery (lumpectomy) or mastectomy, usually combined with reconstruction.

• Radiotherapy – to target and destroy any remaining cancer cells in the breast or chest area.

• Chemotherapy – to treat cancer cells that may have travelled beyond the breast.

• Hormonal therapy – for hormone-sensitive cancers, to reduce recurrence risk.

• Targeted Therapy – Uses advanced molecular treatments that identify and block specific pathways cancer cells rely on to grow and survive.

• Immunotherapy – Activates the body’s own immune system to recognise and attack cancer cells more effectively.

​

Every recommendation is carefully discussed with you — so you feel informed, in control, and confident at every step of your treatment.

​

Healing Beyond Treatment

​

Medical care is only part of recovery. Emotional wellbeing, physical strength, and mindset play a profound role in healing.

Our approach includes not just surgery and treatment, but ongoing support for nutrition, exercise, sleep, and mental health — helping you rebuild strength and confidence along the way.

 

Our team also provides guidance on what to expect during recovery, managing side effects, and adjusting to life after treatment.

You will always have someone to turn to, someone who understands.

​

At Breast & Wellness, our goal is to make sure that even in the most difficult moments, you feel safe, supported, and hopeful — because there is a path forward, and you have a team committed to walking it with you.
