Performed by Rob Milligan, Consultant Oncoplastic & Cosmetic Breast Surgeon
If you’re experiencing breast symptoms like a lump, unusual nipple changes, asymmetry, persistent pain, or skin alterations, the One‑Stop Breast Clinic offers a fast, compassionate, and efficient pathway to diagnosis and reassurance.
This patient-centered approach brings consultation, diagnostics, and treatment planning together, often within a single visit.
- Faster answers, less anxiety: Rather than returning multiple times, you complete your consultation, imaging, and biopsy (when needed) in one streamlined visit.
- Expert care and empathy: Mr Milligan is known for his compassionate approach and detailed explanations that help demystify complex processes.
What to Expect at Your Visit
- Consultation & Assessment
You’ll meet Mr Milligan, who will discuss your symptoms, medical and family history, and perform a physical exam with a chaperone for your comfort. - Imaging: Ultrasound and Mammogram
Depending on your age and clinical situation, one or both imaging tests may be performed:- Ultrasound: Ideal for detailed evaluation of lumps, breast density, or localised pain; commonly the first step, especially under age 40
- Mammograms: High-quality X‑ray imaging, typically recommended for women aged 40 and above
- When done in a single visit, these offer prompt insight, reducing wait times and worry.
- Biopsy (If Required)
- Core Needle Biopsy: Guided by ultrasound for solid lumps
- Fine Needle Aspiration (FNA): A quick procedure to drain or sample cyst fluid, minimally invasive and often not painful
- Results & Next Steps
- Imaging results are typically provided on the same day.
- Biopsy results often follow within 7 days, and a follow-up consultation helps establish the next steps, whether it’s reassurance, monitoring, or treatment planning.
