In this video, I’ll be addressing one of the most important questions asked by those newly diagnosed with breast cancer: “Who will be looking after me if I have breast cancer?” A breast cancer diagnosis can feel overwhelming, but it’s crucial to know that you’ll have a team of specialized professionals dedicated to guiding you through every step of your treatment, care, and recovery journey.
I’ll explain how this multi-disciplinary breast cancer team functions and who exactly will be part of it. From oncologists to surgeons, radiologists, and oncology nurses, each member has a unique role in helping you achieve the best possible outcome. This video covers how each specialist works to support your physical health and well-being, with a holistic approach that aims to give you comfort and reassurance during each phase of treatment.
Breast cancer care is highly personalised, so I’ll walk you through what that looks like and why it’s designed to meet your specific needs. You might be wondering what to expect from your treatment plan or how to communicate effectively with your healthcare team. I’ll give insights on how to prepare for appointments and make the most of every interaction with your breast cancer team to ensure you feel empowered and informed.
It’s common to feel anxiety when diagnosed with breast cancer, especially about potential treatments like surgery, chemotherapy, or radiation. Here, I’ll break down how each of these treatments is tailored to your case and how your support team works to minimize any side effects and prioritize your quality of life. I’ll also touch on the importance of emotional support, including psychologists, counselors, and breast cancer support groups that are available to help you and your family cope with the emotional aspects of this journey.
Please feel free to share your questions in the comments, as I’m here to provide as much clarity as possible. Remember, you’re not alone in this process, and there’s a compassionate, highly skilled team by your side, every step of the way.

Hi, I'm Dr Tasha
I’m a Doctor, Breast Cancer Surgeon, and Medical Educator. After 20 years of helping people understand and overcome breast health problems, I’ve seen first-hand the fear, frustration, and stress that my patients go through.
As a breast specialist with over a decade’s worth of experience, I understand finding the right information, processing a diagnosis, understanding treatment, and getting accurate, practical advice as you ride the rollercoaster of emotions can be really tough.
But I’m here to help.
The internet can be a wonderful source of information but when it comes to breast health there’s a lot of inaccurate information out there. Listening to the wrong advice could cause you unnecessary worry or even put your health at risk.
So I wanted to create an accessible hub where you could find useful, accurate, and reliable information from a trusted source – a Breast Health Doctor – all in one place.
That’s exactly what you’ll find here on my YouTube Channel.
