Breast Cancer
Breast cancer is the most common cancer in the uk, affecting women of all ages and occasionally men.
At Guildford Private General Practice we recommend that you are breast aware. Know what is normal for you and report any changes without delay. If, after your consultation, there are concerns about your examination, we are able to organise a fast-track appointment, often on the same day, with a specialist breast consultant. We can also arrange mammograms for asymptomatic women too young for the national screening programme but looking for reassurance.

Screening
Asymptomatic women aged 40+ can be screened for breast cancer using a mammogram. This is a special x-ray of the breast. If any abnormalities are detected further tests, such as an ultrasound and biopsy, might need to be done. 1 in 25 women are called back after breast screening and of those 1 in 5 will have breast cancer
Price £288 - Includes Consultation with a doctor and Mammogram. Suitable for asymptomatic women aged 40+. If you have symptoms please book a routine appointment.
