Revised 28/01/2008
| What are Breast Clinics? Breast clinics normally refer to a “one-stop” clinic for which diagnosis, treatment, counselling and all other specialties involved in the management of breast disorders can be assessed. It is normally headed by a surgeon specialising in the management of breast diseases, inclusive of cancer. In Malaysia, they may not necessarily mean that all the modalities of treatment in breast cancer, such as radiotherapy may be within the same physical site but these will all be coordinated as far as possible. The ideal situation would of course be for all to be housed in the same hospital or centre.
