Episode Details

Making decisions after a breast cancer diagnosis can feel overwhelming, especially when it comes to choosing between lumpectomy and mastectomy. In this episode, we explore the key differences between these two surgical options — from procedure types and recovery times to emotional well-being and body image considerations.

We discuss:

• What lumpectomy and mastectomy involve
• When each surgery is recommended
• Factors like tumor size, location, and genetic risks
• Emotional impact and post-surgical reconstruction options
• How to talk with your care team about your best path forward

Although Onco Life Centre does not perform surgery in-house, we collaborate closely with expert surgeons to ensure patients receive a complete and coordinated treatment plan.
