Specialist Centres for breast cancer
Fast diagnosis and the best possible care
We’ve joined forces with leading private hospitals to create our Specialist Centres for breast cancer.
Specialist Centres have all the experts you need in one place. So, you can have all your initial tests and scans in one visit and get answers fast.
If you have our cover and are worried you might have cancer, call us straight away. Some policies may not cover Specialist Centres, but we’ll still be able to connect you to a breast cancer specialist.

How does it work?
Call us as soon as you notice a sign
If you have our cover, and are worried you might have cancer, call us. If you need one, we’ll book a visit at a Specialist Centre. If your policy doesn’t cover Specialist Centres, we’ll connect you to a breast cancer specialist.

Visit a centre within two working days
If you visit a Specialist Centre, you’ll have all your initial tests and scans in one visit. Plus, a consultation to discuss your initial results. So, you could get peace of mind the same day.
Get your results two days later
You’ll get your full results two working days after your first visit. If it is cancer, our experts will explain the next steps.
Start treatment within 31 days
If you need treatment, this will start within 31 days. That's half the national published target.
How our Specialist Centres can help
Save weeks of uncertainty
Get all your initial tests within two working days of calling us. You'll then get the all-clear or test results in another two working days.
Care from breast cancer experts
All centres have specialist teams of oncologists, radiologists and cancer nurses. They’re experts in breast cancer care and can get you the best possible treatment.
Support for you and your family
A Bupa cancer nurse specialist can support you every step of the way. They’ll be there for your family too. They can give information, advice and all the time and support you need.
Access to breakthrough cancer drugs
We can offer some cancer drugs and treatments before they're available on the NHS. We’ll need to check that the drugs or treatments are evidence-based and covered by your policy.
