NHS clinic questions
How do I get referred to the breast clinic at Wycombe Hospital?
NHS patients are referred by their GP to the Bucks Breast Unit at Wycombe Hospital, usually on the urgent suspected cancer pathway. That pathway is the NHS two-week-wait route: the referral is for assessment of a breast symptom. It is not an invitation to screening. The unit then arranges the clinic appointment and the tests that visit needs. You do not book this clinic yourself as a private patient.
Is this the same as NHS breast screening in High Wycombe?
No. Screening is the NHS Breast Screening Programme. It invites people by letter, on an age cycle, when they have no symptom that prompted the appointment. This page is the symptomatic breast clinic at Wycombe Hospital. You come because a GP has referred a symptom, such as a lump, pain, or a change in the breast. A screening mammogram and this clinic are different appointments.
Which breast surgeons work at Wycombe Hospital?
Dr Fiona Tsang-Wright is a consultant breast surgeon at the Bucks Breast Unit, Wycombe Hospital. She is one of the unit's consultants. She is not the only one, and this page does not list colleagues by name. Breast symptoms are assessed and treatment is planned by the multidisciplinary team, which includes the surgeons, radiologists, pathologists, and nurses who review each case. Your clinic letter names the consultant you saw.
Can I see Dr Tsang-Wright privately in Buckinghamshire instead?
Yes. Private consultations in Buckinghamshire are on Tuesdays at The Chiltern Hospital in Great Missenden, which is a different appointment from this NHS clinic. NHS care stays on the GP referral to Wycombe Hospital. The private visit does not replace that referral. The address, how to book, and what to bring are on the Buckinghamshire private clinic page.
