Angelina Jolie's Double Mastectomy Story with Dr Tasha

When people in the public domain talk about their health, whether it was a health
scare or a cancer diagnosis, people respond it different ways.

However, when Angelina Jolie broke the news about how she underwent a risk-reducing mastectomy (or preventative mastectomy which is how people refer it too as well), the effect was very different. The phrase the 'Angelina Jolie effect' was coined and her story impacted so many lives. In this video, I am going to recount Angelina Jolie's story through material that is available to the public and will go through the reasons why Angelina Jolie decided to have this surgery.

Breast health has become an important topic for both women and men. But with a huge amount of conflicting and confusing information out there, it can be hard to find the advice, support and care that you need.

My Breast My Health was created to make understanding breast health easy. Whether you’re looking to learn how to keep your breasts healthy, concerned about new symptoms or learning to live post-diagnosis, you’re in the right place.

Hi, I'm Dr TASHA

I’m a Doctor, Breast Cancer Surgeon and Medical Educator. After 20 years helping people to understand and overcome breast health problems, I’ve seen first hand the fear, frustration and stress that my patients go through.

As a breast specialist with over a decade’s worth of experience, I understand finding the right information, processing a diagnosis, understanding treatment and getting accurate, practical advice as you ride the rollercoaster of emotions can be really tough.

But I’m here to help.

Many people think that as a Breast Specialist Surgeon, I just do surgery. But that’s far from the truth. In fact, the majority of my patients don’t need any treatment at all – just advice and support.

The internet can be a wonderful source of information but when it comes to breast health there’s a lot of inaccurate information out there. Listening to the wrong advice could cause you unnecessary worry or even put your health at risk.

So I wanted to create an accessible hub where you could find useful, accurate and reliable information from a trusted source – a Breast Health Doctor – all in one place.

That’s exactly what you’ll find on My Breast My Health, welcome to my YouTube Channel.
