The information on this site is designed to be helpful and easy to understand, but it’s general in nature. It shouldn’t be taken as personalised medical advice.

If you think you might need an assessment for hereditary breast or ovarian cancer, the best next step is to talk with your GP, a genetics service, or another qualified healthcare provider in New Zealand. They can give you advice that’s specific to you.

Although we aim to keep all content accurate and current, we can’t guarantee it’s complete or applicable to every individual. Decisions about your health should always be made in partnership with a healthcare professional who knows your medical history.
