Breast Care

NMC's Breast Care Centres function as integrated, one-stop destinations for the complete spectrum of breast health services. By providing 360-degree care, we ensure that patients do not need to navigate multiple, disconnected appointments. Our facilities deliver seamless, coordinated care under one roof. We help all types of patients, those booking a baseline screening or those seeking a second opinion on a mammogram report or require advanced oncoplastic surgery.

Internationally trained, female and male breast surgeons make up our multidisciplinary team. This includes, surgical and clinical oncologists, radiologists specialised in breast imaging, pathologists, reconstructive surgeons, physiotherapists and dedicated breast care nurses. Collaborating daily in dedicated meetings, together they review every complex case, ensuring a unified and optimal treatment plan for each individual.

Diagnosing and managing the full range of breast conditions, our specialists provide expert care for both benign concerns and malignant disease.

• Breast cysts and fibrocystic changes
• Fibroadenomas

• Duct ectasia and periductal mastitis
• Breast pain
• Nipple discharge

Malignant (Cancerous) Conditions:

Particularly recognised for expertise in managing complex and advanced cases, our centres offer services including:

• Early-Stage Cancer with BRCA or Genetic Mutations: We provide guidance on risk-reducing strategies and available surgical options.
• Locally Advanced Breast Cancer: To shrink tumours before surgery, we employ neo-adjuvant treatments.
• Metastatic Breast Cancer: We offer systemic therapies to control disease and maintain quality of life.
• Oncoplastic & Reconstructive Challenges: Our teams combine cancer surgery with advanced plastic surgical techniques for optimal aesthetic results.

Regardless of the condition, our philosophy is to preserve breast form and function whenever safely possible, to utilise the least invasive yet most effective treatments and to provide continuous support throughout the treatment journey and beyond.

Our breast care centres are equipped with state-of-the-art technology that enables precise diagnosis, targeted treatment and enhanced patient comfort. We adhere to the highest international standards of quality and safety in every procedure. We provide advanced breast imaging services where we offer full-field digital mammography with tomosynthesis (3D mammo), high-resolution breast ultrasound and dedicated breast MRI. We work with image-guided interventions, using ultrasound and stereotactic-guided biopsy systems for accurate, minimally invasive tissue sampling. When surgery is required, we utilise surgical and planning technology performing sentinel lymph node mapping, specimen imaging, all while using the most sophisticated surgical tools. Pathology and molecular diagnostics play a key role with rapid, accurate histopathology and advanced biomarker testing (ER, PR, HER2, Ki67) where we guide personalised therapy.

All our diagnostic services are performed in comfort-conscious environments with private consultation rooms, dedicated procedure suites and a calming clinic design to reduce anxiety. With our 360-degree approach, we leverage these advanced tools within a framework of multidisciplinary collaboration. Our aim is early detection, precision treatment, faster recovery and the best possible long-term health and wellbeing for our patients.

Our treatment philosophy is personalised yet offered under a multidisciplinary consensus. First and foremost, we explore and exhaust all appropriate conservative and organ-preserving avenues. We recommend surgical intervention only when medically necessary, always with a focus on achieving the best oncological outcome while preserving quality of life and body image.

Our comprehensive treatment services include:
