Urgent breast cancer screening
Get rapid access to our leading specialists.
Are you looking for an urgent and comprehensive assessment?
If you are concerned about breast symptoms or have been advised to get a mammogram, the KEVII Breast Health Centre provides an urgent, rapid, triple-assessment service in a private and dignified environment.
Discreetly located within London’s Harley Street medical district, King Edward VII’s Hospital provides the very highest levels of patient-centred care.
Discovering the presence of a lump in your breast can be an extremely worrying time. However, breast symptoms are very common and the majority of patients who attend our Breast Health Centre have benign conditions (meaning they do not have breast cancer).
Although benign breast lumps are far more common than malignant ones (cancerous), breast cancer is still the most common cancer in women in the United Kingdom, with 1 in 8 women in England expected to develop the disease in their lifetime.
Over 80 per cent of patients seen at our Breast Health Centre with a lump have a benign lump, but a full urgent triple assessment of any breast lump is highly recommended to rule out cancer.
It is quite often that a cancerous lump may look or feel the same as a benign one, and only triple assessment in a Rapid Access specialised breast clinic would make the diagnosis.
