Chris O'Brien Lifehouse

Happy days has landed with Grade 2 invasive. I don't want much after double mastectomy - too many other co mobilities. Can anyone tell me in 2024 do RPA pts go into RPA ward or the Lighthouse as a public pt? I've had a few chats - and because I don't want anything apart from surgery it is pretty simple and not much there after to say!!! Surgeons a bit disappointed???

    Hi there,
    I didn't have my surgery at RPA but I did have my radiation at Chris O'Brien.
    They were really wonderful. I had a brilliant Radiation oncologist (Dr Georgia Harris), the nursing staff and radiation technicians were really good.
    I can't help with info re: public / private patients, but the care you will receive at the Lifehouse IMHO was very good. Hope all goes well with your surgery and treatment
