About this service

Here at the Playford Health Hub:

Specialised surgical team

Experienced breast care nurses
The second location is the Breast and Endocrine Centre at Calvary North Adelaide Hospital.
Specialised team
To support your care in the best possible manner, you will be assisted by a specialised team, including:
General Practitioner (GP)
If you are diagnosed with breast cancer by the Breast and Endocrine Centre, we will send a letter to your GP, with your consent. This will provide an update and make plans for any follow up required.
Your GP will continue as your primary care provider, so it’s important you visit your GP for any health concerns, including referrals to other specialists and scripts for medications.
Surgeon
The surgeon is the specialist doctor who will assess and diagnose your condition. Depending on your required treatment regime, the surgeon will either treat your condition or refer you to a specialised oncologist (cancer specialist).
You can book with the first available, or your preferred specialist.
Breast care nurses
From the time of diagnosis, and throughout treatment, our breast care nurse will inform, organise, empower and support you and your family throughout your breast care journey.
Administration support officer
Your dedicated administration assistant will schedule all of your appointments and assist you with any billing enquiries.
