Taking care of you is what we love doing most.

The Breast Unit at Medical Center , which began operations in 2018, is made up of highly qualified professionals dedicated exclusively to the diagnosis and treatment of breast diseases, especially breast cancer, using an interdisciplinary approach.

Every year, approximately 22,000 new cases of breast cancer are diagnosed in Argentina. Breast cancer is the most common cancer among women in developed countries and one of the few cancers that can be diagnosed in its earliest stages.
