23.01.2022 We love hearing from our global colleagues, and this important message during Breast Cancer Awareness Month, is one for us all. Early detection and treatment of breast cancer can significantly improve survival outcomes. If you're worried about any lumps or bumps in your breast, make an appointment for a breast screen. #breastcancerawarenessmonth #notmy8

22.01.2022 Jenny was diagnosed with breast cancer in November last year. She first felt an unusual lump in her breast whilst on holiday in the USA, immediately went to see her GP when she arrived home and was diagnosed with breast cancer one week later. If you feel any unusual lumps or bumps in your breasts, we recommend making an appointment for a breast screen. Early detection and treatment of breast cancer can significantly improve survival outcomes. If you'd like any support regarding a breast cancer diagnosis, please contact our GenesisCare Breast Cancer Information line at 1800770776. #breastcancerawarenessmonth

17.01.2022 Meet The New Face of Radiation Therapy. Brett is 55 years of age and lives in Queensland. A lifetime of enjoying the harsh Australian sun had taken a toll on his skin. In the last 25 years, Brett has attempted to alleviate his skin cancers through surgery, topical creams and a range of other treatments, however the improvement in his skin quality had been minimal and short lived. A turning point for Brett was when his doctor referred him to GenesisCare to be considered for radiation therapy to address the skin cancers on his scalp and face.

01.01.2022 I cannot even begin to explain the feeling of watching the chemo come down the IV line and into my bloodstream for the first time. It was a moment I will never forget. The decision for Shonel to treat her rare and aggressive breast cancer with mainstream treatments had been tough, and very considered. For her, chemotherapy was something she’d never thought she would accept doing, and yet here she was in hospital nervously awaiting what would likely be one of the craziest s...ituations of her life.
