Breast Cancer

Breast surgeon Sarah Shubeck, MD, left, is part of a team of specialists who are focused on breast cancer care.

The breast cancer team at the University of Chicago Medicine has expertise across the full spectrum of breast cancer care: breast imaging, breast surgery, medical and radiation oncology, reconstructive surgery, clinical genetics, pathology, nursing, and care for male breast cancer patients. Through our integrated approach, patients receive a comprehensive treatment plan that optimizes chances of survival and quality of life, including those diagnosed with metastatic breast cancer.

But, it's not enough to offer every breast cancer treatment. Each breast cancer patient is unique, so our breast cancer experts take the time to thoroughly and thoughtfully explain each patient’s disease and treatment options so they can make an informed choice about their preferred care.

Compassionate, one-on-one attention to each cancer patient is part of the high caliber of care patients can expect from UChicago Medicine. We're dedicated to making the breast cancer care experience as seamless and accommodating as possible. For example, our specialists work together to streamline appointments for patients, so that they can be scheduled the same day.
