    Professor Zoe Winters

    PhD (Oxon), FRCS (Edin), FCS (SA) SFHEA (UCL)

    Honorary Associate Professor of Breast Surgery

    Professor Zoe Winters is an experienced, top Senior London Consultant Oncoplastic Breast Cancer Surgeon and Breast Specialist, with over 35 years of experience. Zoe specialises in 'rapid' One-Stop breast clinics for early detection of breast cancer, and the diagnosis, treatment and management of breast cancer using the latest cutting edge treatments and management strategies. Risk-adapted breast screening is part of her speciality. 

    Serving patients in state-of-the-art clinics at 9 Harley Street and LIPS Healthcare, Battersea Power Station, London, where a full breast cancer check is performed.

    Consistently praised for her holistic approach, all patients are given a high quality, personalised service. Only the highest standards of treatment and care are given. We practise individualised breast imaging based on mammographic breast density that is complemented with ultrasound and / or contrast-enhanced mammograms (CEM) and MRIs. Real-time tissue biopsy is performed alongside sharing all imaging reports. 

    30-minute consultations discuss individual breast cancer risks, family history and lifestyle risk factors such as HRT, along with a full breast clinical assessment.

    Recommendations for testing inheritable gene panels, and potential preventative population risk genes occur by referrals to leading geneticists.

    Beyond survival: Redefining Success in Oncoplastic Breast Cancer Surgery

    Zoe offers leading expertise in planning oncoplastic surgery by saving the breast and / or types of breast cancer reconstruction. Zoe works with a team of Associate Consultant Breast Cancer Surgeons, and was recognised with “the best breast cancer surgeon of the year” awards (2021 - 2025), including annual online patient reported satisfaction endorsements on Doctify and iwantgreatcare since 2021.

    SECOND OPINIONS are available to patients from around the world, via video consultation. To do this, we will require your imaging and histology reports, in English. Please email, admin@londonbreasthealth.com stating that you wish a second opinion and my Practice Manager will assist you. 

    Expertise and care is centered on the diagnosis, treatment and management of breast cancer, with treatment plans tailored to the individual's diagnosis.

    How we work

    The latest innovations based on the highest levels of clinical evidence are used.

    Consultant led ‘rapid’ One-Stop clinics in state-of-the-art facilities. The One-Stop clinic involves an ‘in-depth’ consultation, including imaging, diagnosis and a treatment plan.

    One-Stop clinics provide a rapid method for diagnosing any breast problem or related breast concerns. The latest breast imaging is planned around individual breast tissue density, with access to 3-D tomosynthesis, expert led-ultrasound and contrast enhanced breast imaging (CEM), based on the latest evidence. Equally, imaging techniques for staging breast cancers include PET CT scans.

    All results are discussed by a multidisciplinary team (MDT), alongside expert recommendations. Specialists in pathology, radiology, oncology and radiotherapy ratify treatment recommendations. Follow-up consultations work in the same way as above.

    Our breast team offer specialist referrals as follows:  

    • Physiotherapy 
    • Pain clinics 
    • Psychologists 
    • Lymphoedema nurses 
    • Breast Care Nurses
    • Plastic Surgery
    • Gynaecology 
    • Rheumatology
    • Weight loss and Endocrinology

    Individual breast cancer risks are assessed based on known risk factors: Previous breast biopsies; Family History: Age of first pregnancy: Duration of breast feeding: Body mass index: HRT: Endometriosis and Tubal ligation.

    Preventative genetic screening is offered to all women in keeping with the latest clinical evidence.

    Professor Winters advises Gene Expression Signature (GES) tests for different cancer types. These are used to inform future risks of recurrence at 10 years, and 20 years and may also predict complete cancer responses to upfront chemotherapy:

    • OncoTypeDx
    • Pam50 (Mammoprint)
    • HER2DX (immune; proliferation; luminal type; HER2 genes) used to predict risks and pathological complete response
    • Tumour Infiltrating Lymphocytes (TILS)

    “Where Science Meets Sensitivity.”
