Episode 71: Helping women with breast cancer live well today

In our second episode from the new Breast Cancer Centre at St Bartholomew's Hospital, host Steve Bland speaks to Amie Murphy, the centre's lead nurse for breast cancer, and patient Helen Nicholson, who was on the Patient Advisory Group, which informed the design of the centre.

Together they explore how the centre will transform breast cancer care in this part of London, the role of patients in the creation of the new facility and plenty more.

About the Breast Cancer Centre:

With support from Barts Charity, the centre, which is based across the hospital's Smithfield and Giltspur wings, brings together surgery, reconstruction, diagnostics and outpatient care under one roof — making it easier to access the right care, at the right time.

Designed to reduce delays and improve outcomes, it offers women faster diagnosis, safer surgery and fairer access to leading treatments and clinical trials. As part of the wider cancer services, it reflects the hospital's commitment to improving survival and quality of life for everyone affected by cancer.
