October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, a timely reminder of the importance of regular checks and early detection. Breast cancer remains the most common cancer among Australian women, with around 1 in 7 women diagnosed in their lifetime. Early detection can make a significant difference to outcomes and treatment options.

Our practice is proud to support this important initiative by offering breast check and assessment appointments, providing local patients with convenient access to this essential health service.

Our practice is committed to delivering high-quality, patient-centred care. With breast checks, patients can benefit from early detection, reassurance, and peace of mind — without the need to travel far from work or home.

Our experienced team ensures every patient feels supported and cared for in a comfortable and professional environment. This October, we encourage women to prioritise their health and take advantage of this important assessment service.
