Team

To provide the best care for her patients, Prof Elder works in a team of other dedicated professionals, including breast care nurses and other specialists. All cancer patients are discussed at Multidisciplinary Team meetings either at Lakeside Specialist Breast Clinic or at the Westmead Breast Cancer Institute to provide a personalised treatment plan. These are the other specialists Prof Elder works most closely with, but she may also refer to other specialists according to patients’ wishes.
