QUALITY & OUTCOMES
BREAST CANCER
The integrated, multidisciplinary breast cancer program at Ochsner includes radiologists, oncologists, plastic surgeons and ancillary surgeons. Ochsner’s Lieselotte Tansey Breast Center is the first facility in the Gulf South region to be fully accredited by the National Accreditation Program for Breast Centers. Ochsner’s premier breast reconstruction program provides the most effective, advanced breast cancer care for patients.
Our surgeons and radiologists who specialize in the evaluation and management of breast disease work together in the same facility to provide women with comprehensive breast services and swift diagnoses.
By working in close proximity, the Breast Center fosters a synergy and efficiency that is unachievable in
any other setting.
