Curing Breast Cancer
Breast Cancer is the world’s most prevalent cancer, but world mortality rates associated with this cancer are reducing with earlier detection and advanced treatment methods. We recommend undergoing tests including imaging of breasts and if needed taking a biopsy with the patient’s tissue sample for determining if the mass is cancerous or benign.
The Lifeline hospital offers counseling sessions to support women who are detected with breast cancer. We will be walking with our patients through all treatment stages- surgery, post-surgery care, and recovery.
