Surgery Department
Patients start their treatment
journey at Baheya Hospital with their examination in the surgery clinics where they
are medically examined, and the essential screening and samples are requested. The
next stage starts after the results. The medical committee coordinates with the
physicians to let the multidisciplinary team MDT check the patient’s file. The
meeting of the committee is held 6 times a week.
The cases are discussed by
the specialized medical committee, then the treatment plan is set by
consultants from all the hospital departments. Then, the patient is informed of
the decision. Afterward, coordination takes place to book a date for the surgery.
Another date is set for the patient’s first visit after the surgery.
All breast surgeries are
carried out in the hospital starting from lumpectomy to mastectomy, tissue-based reconstruction
to silicon implants. In addition, sentinel lymph node exsection surgeries are
performed to prevent arm swelling after the surgery.
