Fees, insurance, and self-pay pricing — private breast surgery costs in London

Transparent self-pay pricing and private medical insurance guidance for breast surgery, one-stop clinics, and imaging with Dr Fiona Tsang-Wright (GMC 4549831), Consultant Oncoplastic and Reconstructive Breast Surgeon, in London and Buckinghamshire. Published consultant fees and insurer recognition are maintained on PHIN.

This page explains how insurance and self-pay work in practice, where to get a written quote in advance for surgery or reconstruction, and how to confirm current fees and insurer recognition. International patients should also see the overseas-patients page for visa, translator, and embassy-scheme logistics.

In line with the CMA Order on private healthcare, Dr Tsang-Wright’s published consultant fees and private medical insurer recognition status are maintained on the Private Healthcare Information Network (PHIN). Breastory does not duplicate those figures or insurer lists on this page — PHIN is the authoritative source for current fee amounts and recognition status. For an itemised quote for a specific appointment, operation, or hospital, contact Dr Tsang-Wright’s PAs.

01

Private medical insurance

Dr Tsang-Wright accepts patients with private medical insurance. Current insurer recognition is published on her PHIN profile and is reviewed periodically — please confirm current status with your insurer or with Dr Tsang-Wright’s PAs before booking.

02

Self-pay

Self-pay is straightforward and often the simplest option if you do not have private insurance, or if your policy has not been activated in time for a first appointment. Fees are fixed and quoted upfront before any commitment.

Consultation, imaging, biopsy, pathology, and surgery are quoted separately. Typical self-pay services — first consultation, one-stop breast clinic, private mammogram or ultrasound, MRI, core biopsy, lumpectomy, mastectomy, and DIEP flap reconstruction — are all Quoted by Dr Tsang-Wright’s PAs on enquiry once the appointment, hospital, and clinical scope are confirmed. Published fee ranges on PHIN are a useful reference; your written quote may differ by hospital and what is clinically needed on the day.

For surgery, the fee structure is always: surgeon’s fee + anaesthetist’s fee + hospital fee (theatre time, ward stay, drugs, consumables). The practice provides the surgeon’s fee in writing; the anaesthetist quotes separately; the hospital’s international or self-pay coordinator quotes the hospital element. Sarah or Nadiya collate these into a single written quote before any commitment.

For an itemised quote, email Dr Tsang-Wright’s PAs with the operation or service in question, the preferred hospital (Harley Street area, Chelsea, or Buckinghamshire), and any time-frame, or call 07785 274 744.

Common questions about fees

How much does a private one-stop breast clinic cost?
Consultation and diagnostic fees are quoted for your pathway — they depend on what imaging or biopsy is clinically indicated. See the one-stop clinic page for what a visit includes, then contact Sarah or Nadiya for a fee guide. Published consultant fees are also listed on PHIN where applicable.
How much is a mammogram privately in the UK?
Private mammogram and ultrasound fees are quoted on enquiry for your appointment type (screening vs diagnostic, with or without ultrasound). Read mammogram explained for what the test involves, then contact the practice for a current quote. We do not publish a single fixed national price because pathways differ.
Do you accept private medical insurance?
Dr Tsang-Wright is recognised by major UK insurers including Bupa (Platinum), AXA Health, Aviva, Vitality, and others. Most insurers require a GP referral and pre-authorisation before they will cover a consultation or procedure. Self-pay patients are also welcome.
Where can I see published consultant fees?
Where PHIN publishes consultant fee information for this practice, that is the independent reference. For a personalised quote — especially diagnostic imaging or self-pay pathways — contact Sarah or Nadiya before booking.
