Breast health issues for many women often begin in a state of uncertainty—an unexpected diagnosis, persistent pain, an abnormal mammogram, or a family history of cancer. Women may have multiple appointments across various specialties before receiving a definitive care plan.
New Dedicated Facility for Breast Care
Recognizing the need for coordinated breast care, Cytecare Hospitals has opened the Cytecare Centre for Breast Care in Bengaluru. This dedicated multidisciplinary facility provides comprehensive breast health and cancer care at every stage under one roof.
The centre supports women throughout the entire continuum of breast care, from prevention and screening to diagnosis, treatment, rehabilitation, and long-term survivorship support. It offers evaluation and diagnosis for breast cancer, as well as breast pain, lumps, cysts, abnormal mammography findings, and second opinions on any breast health issues.
Expert Insights on Early Diagnosis
Dr. M.S. Sushrutha, Breast Onco Surgeon at Cytecare Hospitals, stated, "Most women do not visit a breast clinic because they are diagnosed with breast cancer; rather, they come seeking the answer to a question about a concern. Whether there is a lump, breast pain, a mammogram finding, or family history that has raised concern; early diagnosis and a knowledgeable authority figure to aid in your treatment can be crucial to receiving good care."
"The goal of the Centre for Breast Care is to guarantee all women receive integrated and comprehensive breast care by employing an integrated team of breast care providers," Dr. Sushrutha added.
Rising Demand for Breast Care Services
Breast cancer remains the most prevalent cancer diagnosed among women in India. Awareness regarding breast health, screening, and early detection has expanded dramatically, increasing the demand for additional breast care services beyond diagnosis and treatment.
Through a multidisciplinary team including a breast surgeon, radiologist, pathologist, psycho-oncologist, physiotherapist, and rehabilitation specialist, the centre develops specific treatment plans tailored to each patient's individual needs.
Advanced Technology and Comprehensive Services
The centre offers advanced 3D Digital Breast Tomosynthesis (DBT) technology to improve breast imaging, enhance detection and diagnosis of lesions—especially for women with dense breast tissue—and provide added confidence in the diagnostic process. Services include complete breast screening (including mammography), cancer treatment, breast reconstruction surgery, physiotherapy, lymphedema management, psycho-oncological support, and survivorship programs.
While diagnosis and treatment often receive more focus, recovery extends beyond surgery or medical treatment to include physical rehabilitation, emotional well-being, body image issues, and long-term follow-up.
Dr. Sushrutha emphasized, "Treatment is only part of the journey. Recovery is a physical, emotional, and very personal journey for each woman. By offering rehabilitation, psycho-oncological, and survivorship supportive services within the same ecosystem, we are attempting to provide the best possible care for women by addressing their needs, both in terms of the disease and their lives after treatment."
Vision Behind the Centre
Jojis Mathew, Centre Head of Cytecare Centre for Breast Care, explained, "The idea began with a simple question: Why should a woman have to navigate multiple departments, appointments and opinions when it comes to something as important as her breast health? We believed there had to be a better way. That belief led us to create the Cytecare Centre for Breast Care—a dedicated facility that brings together screening, diagnosis, treatment, rehabilitation and survivorship support under one roof."
"Our vision is simple: to ensure that every woman who walks through our doors feels supported, informed and cared for at every stage of her journey. Because peace of mind doesn't begin with treatment; it begins with answers," Mathew added.
Future of Breast Health in India
The increasing number of women proactively managing their health through regular check-ups and early screenings indicates that dedicated breast care centres will be critical in raising awareness, promoting early consultations, and helping women achieve better long-term health outcomes.
