Hi, I’m going through the public system right now, diagnosed late October.
The team at FMC cancer clinic put in a referral to a Mc Grath BC nurse at Victor Harbor as that was the closest one to me. They also gave me the contact number to call if I hadn’t heard anything over the next few days .
I have had several visits from the BC nurse since being diagnosed and she has been very helpful and always answers any concerns or questions I may have. I even had a call from her over the Christmas break to see how I was travelling.
The Breast Care nurses at FMC are available to talk to at anytime Mon-Fri during office hours if you have a concern.
I live on the Fleurieu Peninsula.
If there is anything I can help you with you can drop me a personal message.
