The Rose Ages Breast Health Centre

Overview

The Breast Health Centre (BHC) is dedicated to providing the highest quality care for breast patients across the Champlain Local Health Integration Network (LHIN). It is a comprehensive breast centre that offers expertise in breast imaging, diagnosis, risk assessment, surgical planning and psychosocial support in a caring and efficient environment for individuals with breast cancer and other breast concerns.

The BHC features new, state-of-the-art equipment and will provide a more efficient and comfortable experience for those going through diagnosis and/or treatment. It’s a revolution in breast health that will benefit patients in our region.

With the Breast Health Centre located at the General Campus in the Cancer Centre, on the 4^th floor, patients are closer to the areas where they may have appointments or other forms of treatment which makes their journey more seamless.

This new Breast Health Centre was created entirely through community fundraising and speaks to the generosity of the Ottawa region.

Our Team

The inter-professional team working in the Centre consists of radiologists, breast imaging technologists, surgeons, nurses, medical oncologists, family physicians, social workers, and clerical staff.
