Breast Screening

Our practice is proud to support the NHS Breast Screening Programme. If you’ve been invited for breast screening, we hope you’ll choose to have it.

Warning advice:

Breast cancer is the most common type of cancer in the UK and your risk of getting breast cancer goes up as you get older. About 4 out of 5 breast cancers are found in women over 50 years old. Screening helps to find breast cancers at an early stage when they are too small to see or feel.
