Miss Sascha Dua

Sascha Dua is widely recognised as one of the most pioneering breast surgeons in the United Kingdom, celebrated for her rare dual expertise in oncologic breast surgery and aesthetic breast surgery. Her practice spans the internationally renowned Cromwell Hospital and leading centres across Essex and London, where she treats a global patient base seeking uncompromising standards of breast care. Her outcomes and patient experience metrics are unmatched: she holds more 5-star ratings on iWantGreatCare than any other breast surgeon in the UK, a testament to her exceptional results and the trust she inspires.

Dua’s academic and surgical pedigree is equally distinguished. After training at Guy’s and St Thomas’ Hospitals, she was awarded a competitive scholarship to the Institute of Cancer Research, where she completed a Doctorate of Medicine at the Royal Marsden Hospital. During this period, she became the first surgeon to work in the ground breaking Breakthrough Breast Cancer BRCA2 laboratory, contributing to research that helped shape modern understanding of hereditary breast cancer. Her work earned her the Ronald Raven Prize from the Royal College of Surgeons — one of the profession’s most prestigious honours for surgical academia.

Her advanced surgical training includes the coveted National Oncoplastic Fellowship at Broomfield Hospital and further aesthetic breast surgery training in London and Milan. This culminated in a landmark achievement: she became the first oncologic breast surgeon in the UK to gain formal accreditation in aesthetic breast surgery, establishing her as a uniquely dual-trained specialist whose skillset is unmatched in British breast surgery. Dua now holds a position as a senior consultant at Broomfield Hospital, in Chelmsford home of the work-renowned St Andrew’s plastics Centre.

Her clinical practice spans the full spectrum of modern breast care, including oncoplastic cancer surgery, reconstruction, cosmetic breast reshaping and reduction, and the management of high-risk and BRCA-related pathways. Miss Dua’s clinical style is best described as “Wrap-around care” making her patients feel completely supported whether a cancer patient, or the worried well. Dua is known for her uncompromising belief that oncologic safety and aesthetic outcome must be treated with equal importance, a philosophy that has positioned her at the forefront of a new era in breast surgery.

Her influence extends beyond the operating theatre. Dua is also the focus of a major documentary examining her pioneering work in combining cancer surgery with aesthetic surgery, showcasing her uniquely individualised approach to patient care. The film offers an unprecedented look at her surgical philosophy, her meticulous technique, and the transformative journeys of the patients whose lives she reshapes.

With a career defined by innovation, academic distinction, and consistently outstanding patient outcomes, Sascha Dua stands as one of the most trusted, sought-after, and forward-thinking breast surgeons in the UK today.
