We know how worrying a possible cancer diagnosis is, so we offer direct referral pathways for breast and skin cancer meaning you don’t need to see your GP first. As soon as you have any concerns you can attend a one-stop assessment, typically within 5 days, to screen thoroughly for cancer.
For breast cancer, this includes: clinical examination, imaging (mammography or ultrasound), biopsies if necessary, with indicative outcomes given on the same day (within 5 days if a biopsy is taken).
For skin cancer, this means diagnostic tests and specialist consultations.
For more information on our skin and breast cancer self-referral pathways, take a look at the below:
Our bespoke health screening looks at a variety of information like family history and pathology and genetic testing to build a risk profile for, and identify signs of, Cancer.
Genetic test results can bring important benefits, but it's important to keep in mind:
• Knowing you’re at risk for a condition doesn’t mean you’ll definitely get it or it's severity if you do.
• Finding out you have a higher risk for a disease may make feel anxious. You might prefer not to have this knowledge.
For more information about the Cancer specific core and advanced screening available as part of your health screen*, please download your employee health assessment brochure here.
*available to permanent employees and those on fixed term contracts.
