The Vision
The University of Toronto Breast Surgery Collaborative will purposefully link breast cancer programs across the Toronto Academic Health Sciences Network to create an ecosystem of clinical expertise and a volume of breast cancer cases that is unparalleled in Canada.
This will allow for more cohesive breast cancer care across the Greater Toronto Area, provide the foundation for research informed by significantly larger and diverse data sets and enhance breast cancer related training programs city-wide
