Hi Janina,
I was also young - 34, when diagnosed in 2010. Dr Elston did my masectomy and I can't fault him, fabulous surgeon and great to talk to for information. I went public for my chemo at Cairns Base, as I also had let my insurance slip and they were fabulous. Radiation in Townsville as it wasn't available in Cairns at the time. I have just finished, yesterday as a matter of fact, another year of treatment as they discovered they misdiagnosed my original tumour and I can't fault the Liz Plummer Centre. My new Oncologist Dr Pandey (Public) is great and they have now put in place new procedures so that no one else can be misdiagnosed. I live in the Tablelands region but am happy to talk. Good Luck.
