Amazing work by Treasure Chest - $150k raised at today’s Spring Luncheon!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️

It was a lovely afternoon to dress up and hang out with the work family and even got to catch up with a few of my lovely patients! 😍 The special guest Stephanie Browitt was absolutely exceptional - hearing about her experience, courage and resilience after her severe volcano injuries was so honest and inspirational. Funds were raised with auctions including two couture dresses which were so intricate that they have to be seen in real life to appreciate.

We have been extremely fortunate at and Royal Women’s for the ongoing support of Treasure Chest Charity, to help provide our patients with world class care. Over the years Treasure Chest have provided funding for services including ni**le tattooing, psychology, and cold capping. This year they are supporting a plastics breast reconstruction nurse at RMH and a breast care nurse in Echuca. The committee (some of whom have been treated for breast cancer themselves) work selflessly, tirelessly and passionately in their own time and I can’t even imagine how much work today’s event would have taken to organise. Thank you so much , and we look forward to next year’s event! 💫

Many thanks to Di for spoiling me for my upcoming birthday with balloons, cake and lovely gifts after a busy consulting day 🎈🧁🎉
Getting to an age when I feel genuinely chuffed when my very kind patients tell me that I “look too young to be a surgeon” 😜

Last night Epworth Freemasons Breast Clinic ran a GP educational dinner, to raise awareness about the clinic and services they provide. This was hosted by the wonderful team of breast clinic doctors including Dr Lidia Coha, Dr Maria Rodopoulos, Dr Indira Dhupelia and Dr Angela Catanzariti and lead radiologist (in the middle) Dr Jenny Ellis.
The Freemasons Breast clinic is a unique private clinic in Melbourne where patients are seen by a breast clinic doctor (no referral needed), have breast imaging and are given the results a few hours later. If there is an issue needing to be addressed, the patient will be seen by a breast surgeon within 24 hours. This clinic was established around 1986 by A/Prof John Collins (my senior colleague, pictured in the 3rd photo) and Mr Ian Russell in a time when mammography imaging was improving and prior to government funded Breastscreen in 1991. The clinic provides a personalised screening service and also is usually able to see symptomatic patients within a day or 2, very useful when imaging appointments are hard to get.
It was a fun and informal evening. I gave a talk discussing how GPs might manage screening after patients receive Breastscreen Victoria’s new breast density notifications. This was followed by a Q and A session with my surgical and radiology colleagues (Dr Navin Rudolph, Dr Su Wen Loh and Dr Jenny Ellis) - there were a couple of curly questions! The second part of the evening were small group sessions where the specialists and breast clinic GPs Dr Angela Cantanzariti and Dr Indira Dhupelia spoke with the GP attendees on a variety of subjects. The feedback was great and hopefully the evening was useful for the attendees.

Found these cute little puzzles which are perfect for our waiting room 🧩

It can understandably be stressful attending medical appointments, and possibly even more so if it’s to see a surgeon. Hopefully for some patients putting together a few of the pieces may help to pass the time a little faster ☺️

I had the pleasure of meeting Dr Fatima Khan today! We have shared many patients over the years but have never had an opportunity to meet in person.

We had a great discussion about hormone replacement therapy (HRT) and breast health, which are very much entwined, breast imaging and philosophies in clinical practice.

I was blown away by Fatima’s passion for hormones, strong evidence based practice, and holistic pragmatic patient care, and it was very easy to see why she is a leading voice in menopause education for both patients, media and medical colleagues alike. I gained a lot from the refresher on reproductive hormonal physiology, and was fascinated to learn about the importance of progesterone and how my patients with perimenopausal benign breast disease may benefit. It was very much the case of thinking about a patient from different perspectives with the patient’s overall best interests as the goal.

As an aside, her new rooms are absolutely stunning, and would have to be amongst the most sophisticated, tasteful interior I’ve seen! ♥️

Thank you Fatima, and look forward to catching up again soon 😘
