Early in 2021, Canopy Cancer Care opened its first Hawke’s Bay clinic in the Shape My Health building in Hastings with the aim to open for consultation and treatments a few days each week.

Every day, nine women in New Zealand are diagnosed with breast cancer, so it's likely that someone in your family or workplace will be diagnosed, has had breast cancer in the past, or is supporting someone with breast cancer.
The tireless work that so many doctors, nurses, sonographers, radiologists (and the list goes on) continue to do is life-changing and life-saving for so many patients.
