What Our Patients Say…
“An excellent service. Every step of my treatment was explained clearly, and I felt completely supported throughout.”
Birmingham Breast Group holds a 5/5 rating on Doctify – read more of our patient reviews online.
Founded by Mr. Naren Basu and Dr. Daniel Henderson, Birmingham Breast Group provides NHS-level expertise in a private hospital setting. We focus on delivering compassionate, evidence-based care and ensuring every patient has the best possible experience and treatment outcomes.
A multidisciplinary approach offers personalised treatment plans tailored to each patient’s diagnosis and personal circumstances. Whether you need diagnostic testing, surgery, genetic screening, or ongoing oncology support, we are committed to providing the highest standard of breast care.
The One-Stop Breast Clinic at Spire Parkway provides rapid assessment and diagnosis, ensuring that patients receive same-day consultation, imaging, and biopsy (if required).
If you have noticed a lump, pain, or any changes in your breast, early evaluation can be essential. At our One-Stop Clinic, you will be seen by a breast specialist, undergo mammography and/or ultrasound, receive same-day results where possible, and, if needed, have a biopsy for further examination.
If a patient then requires further treatment, our expert team will support and guide them through the next steps, from surgery to oncology care.
Early and accurate breast cancer diagnosis is critical to successful treatment. We use advanced imaging technologies, including mammography, ultrasound, and MRI, to assess and detect breast abnormalities with precision.
For those with a family history of breast cancer, our cancer genetics service offers advanced BRCA1, BRCA2, and other genetic screening to evaluate inherited risks.
If you have received a breast cancer diagnosis and want further reassurance or clarity on your treatment options, we offer expert second opinions.
Our MDT will review test results, scans, and pathology reports. We provide alternative surgical or oncology options if applicable, and patients gain confidence in their treatment plans and choices.
Seeking a second opinion ensures that you explore every available option before proceeding with treatment.
Our highly skilled breast surgeons at Spire Parkway provide a full range of surgical treatments, tailored to each patient. These include breast-conserving surgery (lumpectomy) to remove cancer while preserving breast tissue, mastectomy (including skin/nipple-sparing techniques) for full breast removal with reconstructive options, and sentinel node biopsy and axillary clearance for evaluating and removing affected lymph nodes.
Many of our patients undergo a combination of surgery and oncology treatments, including radiotherapy or chemotherapy, for the best possible outcomes.
For patients at higher risk of breast cancer, we offer genetic screening and risk assessment. Testing for BRCA1, BRCA2, and other mutations allows for proactive healthcare planning, including increased monitoring and early screening, preventative medication or surgery for high-risk patients, and personalised lifestyle and risk reduction strategies.
Our genetic specialists help patients make informed decisions about their long-term health.
Our specialists at Spire Parkway Solihull offer personalised breast reconstruction options following surgery. We provide autologous (flap) reconstruction using natural body tissue for reconstruction, implant-based reconstruction using high-quality medical-grade implants, and fat transfer and symmetry correction to enhance breast shape post-surgery.
We ensure that every patient receives a thorough consultation to create a personalised reconstruction plan based on their needs and preferences.
For patients seeking reconstruction or cosmetic enhancement, we offer breast implant procedures using the latest, high-quality implants. Whether for symmetry correction after surgery or augmentation, our specialist breast surgeons provide expert guidance on choosing the right implant type and size.
If imaging suggests a breast abnormality, a biopsy may be required to determine whether it is benign or cancerous. We offer needle biopsies, which are minimally invasive procedures with fast results, and surgical biopsies, used when more tissue needs to be examined.
Early detection through biopsy and imaging allows for faster treatment decisions and improves outcomes.
We provide personalised chemotherapy treatment plans, using tailored drug combinations to target breast cancer cells effectively. Chemotherapy may be used before surgery (neoadjuvant chemotherapy) to shrink tumours before removal or after surgery (adjuvant chemotherapy) to lower the risk of recurrence.
Our oncology team carefully manages treatment plans to balance effectiveness with quality of life.
Following surgery, radiotherapy is often recommended to eliminate any remaining cancer cells. We use image-guided precision techniques to maximise treatment effectiveness while minimising side effects.
We provide ongoing monitoring and post-treatment support to help patients recover.

Mr Henderson was kind and understanding and I felt completely at ease with him. He was well informed of my condition and explained his treatment plan to me fully. He has been very attentive in answering emails from me and I really cannot recommend him highly enough. I feel very fortunate to have been in his care.

I have been a patient of Dr Basu since being diagnosed with Breast Cancer a few months ago. Despite the curse of my diagnosis I couldn’t have asked for a better Dr and standard of care. He and his team are super-efficient, have gone out of their way to get fast effective treatment for me and he has super-human levels of patience. During every consultation he has been ever patient, carefully listened to all my questions and concerns then taken the time to explain everything to me and provided constant reassurance. He has been accessible at all times even over weekends and the support has been broad. He looks after you as if you are family and despite having a 90 minute journey to see him at times as we wanted the fastest appointment we couldn’t ask for anything more. Our family see him as an angel not just a doctor for what he has done for us and would recommend him in less than a blink of a eye.

I first met Naren Basu in 2016 at the Queen Elizabeth Women’s Hospital. I had been diagnosed with breast cancer. He is an exceptionally skilled man at putting people at their ease and explaining everything with great patience and candour. He is a consummate professional and really knows his stuff, especially relating to breast cancer. He is very clever, witty, and a super surgeon. He carried out a reduction to both my breasts, removing the tumours at the same time. I was fortunate indeed to have my surgery via the NHS, it would have been very expensive as a private patient but worth every penny. I felt like a million dollars after my operation. I think he is a fabulous man and so skilled on so many levels and outstanding in human kindness.

Nine days before I was due to go on an extended holiday I discovered problems in both breasts. I was lucky enough to get an appointment 3 days before travel. Mr Basu even called me on the day of the appointment to ask me to come in earlier to ensure they had time to undergo all of the tests that evening. Anyone who has had these problems will know how overwhelming it is but Mr Basu took his time to speak to me and explained all of the procedures/tests that would be carried out that evening and possible outcomes. I did have a small procedure and again everything was explained fully and felt quite safe in his hands. The follow up appointments were just as thorough and Mr Basu made sure I understood all that we discussed. If I ever found myself in this position again Mr Basu would be my first port of call.

I am currently under the care of Dr Daniel Henderson at Good Hope Hospital, and I couldn’t ask for better. He listens, and speaks to you in laymans terms so you understand what is going on now and in the future. He talks to you and not at you, and has a very calm and soothing manner. If you are lucky enough to be referred to him, rest assured that you are in good hands, as he gets things actioned quickly.
