This Breast Centre will provide all screenings as well as treatments for Breast diseases that are available globally.”
Dr Riyaz Khan, Hospital Chief Operating Officer said the CARE Hospitals Banjara Hills Breast Clinic for Women has developed a very comprehensive programme for breast diseases prevention and screening. Under the programme the emphasis will be on Triple Assessment services includes Gynaecology Consultation, General Surgery Consultation, and Plastic Surgery Consultation under Single Consultation package. The discounted Breast Screening Package offer is at Rs.1050. The package includes a clinical breast examination, a radiology screening in the form of an Ultrasound or Mammogram depending on the age and risk factor of the woman and a consultation with a breast specialist. This will not just help in the early breast diseases detection but also aims to identify women who are at high risk of developing breast diseases so that they can make lifestyle modifications and take the necessary medical guidance to tackle the issue.
On this occasion Dr.Ravinder Reddy Consutlant General Surgery said “Awareness on Breast disease is high in Telugu States, but the knowledge on importance of ‘multi-disciplinary’ care has not reached the people. A person with Breast disease cannot be treated or cured completely by visiting a single doctor he/she would require a complete and comprehensive treatment under triple assessment to recover completely.
Dr.Gyaneshwar Consutlant Plastic Surgeon said on this occasion that Breast Diseases forms the number one cancer among Indian women and accounts for 14% of all cancers in women. In urban areas, 1 in 22 women is likely to develop breast cancer during her lifetime. Out of these women 1 in 2 may not survive making the outlook even more bleak. It is believed that one of the biggest reasons for the high mortality rate is the late diagnosis which is primarily due to lack of awareness and the absence of a proper breast cancer screening programme.

This Clinic offers a full spectrum of breast health services including prevention & genomics, screening (breast exams, ultrasound and mammogram) breast surgeries, breast reconstruction and conservation, chemotherapy and post-treatment support in the form of rehabilitation and counselling services.
