October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month - a time to reflect on the impact of breast cancer in our communities and the importance of access to the best possible care. At St St John of God Warrnambool Hospital the generosity of our supporters has helped introduce two groundbreaking technologies for breast cancer treatment: • Magseed – making treatment more precise and comfortable. • Tivato surgical microscope – transforming breast reconstruction surgery.
