Cheryl Lobo is an experienced Consultant Breast and Oncoplastic Surgeon caring for patients with breast disease since 2007. She offers one-stop breast clinics for rapid diagnosis. State-of-the-art breast imaging and biopsies (if needed) are undertaken at the initial consultation, with same day results.

She specializes in the management of all aspects of breast disease with the emphasis always on survivorship and the needs of modern women. She believes in providing personalised care and clinical excellence in an efficient and approachable manner. Patients have found her to be detailed, clear and unrelenting in providing the best possible care. This combination of expertise, experience and compassion, make her one of the top breast cancer surgeons London has to offer.

She treats patients with breast cancer who present with symptoms, recalled through breast screening or from a high-risk family background. As an oncoplastic surgeon, Miss Lobo combines the latest plastic surgery techniques with breast cancer surgery to give both the best cancer treatment and the best cosmetic outcome for her patients. She works with her dedicated team of specialist nurses, radiologists, oncologists, anaesthetists and operating theatre staff to deliver the highest standard of care.

A diagnosis of breast cancer can be difficult and overwhelming. A second opinion by Miss Lobo involves review of the diagnosis, review of treatment options and a personalised treatment plan for your cancer and you. Having this additional information, gives reassurance, empowers you to make a more informed decision and prepares you for a positive cancer journey.

Miss Lobo is also passionate about optimising breast health. She advises on strategies to reduce cancer risk including personalised risk-based screening and safe use of HRT. She is regularly invited to speak at Longevity, Menopausal and Women’s Heath events, and supports breast education in schools.

In addition to her work as a Surgeon, Miss Lobo set up the breast sarcoma tertiary referral centre for the London Sarcoma Service - Europe's largest sarcoma service. She was also appointed Co-Chair of the Proton Beam Therapy and Cancer Development board at University College London Hospital.

Miss Lobo graduated from Imperial College London with honours and completed her specialist breast surgical training at The Royal Marsden. As a fellow of the Royal College of Surgeons of England and a member of the Association of Breast Surgeons, she has publications in peer-reviewed journals and has presented her work nationally and internationally. Her outside interests include spending time with her family, art history and architectural design.
