Oncoplastic Breast Surgeon

ABOUT KATHERINE GALE

I am an NZ trained surgeon, specialising in oncoplastic surgery, melanoma and general surgery. I hold a consultant surgeon position at WDHB, and work in private. My areas of interest are the management of all benign and malignant breast conditions within an MDT setting, hereditary breast cancer assessment, and top surgery for transgender patients. I perform all forms of partial and whole breast reconstruction, revision surgery, and prophylactic nipple sparing mastectomy with immediate reconstruction for high risk genetic patients.

I received specialist post fellowship (FRACS 2011) clinical oncoplastic breast training at the renowned Nottingham Breast Institute (UK) 2013-2014, where I also published my research in international scientific journals.
