What to expect
The Breast Unit is a small friendly unit. It is often busy but people have told us they find the atmosphere calming. We really value your feedback and actively address your comments to make positive changes. You will find two comments books in which you can give us feedback.
Above all we want you to feel supported and re-assured too. Please do talk to one of the team if you have any concerns or any queries regarding appointments.
