Breast cancer
Annually, 1,200 women and men with breast cancer are diagnosed and treated by our breast services, one of the largest specialist centres in the country.
Broomfield (as part of the Chelmsford and Colchester breast screening service) and Southend Hospitals host screening assessment whilst symptomatic services are supported on all three units, seeing 15,000 urgent suspected cancer referrals per year.
Reconstruction is supported by the world-renowned St Andrew’s centre at Broomfield Hospital.
