Dr. Muhammad N. Siddique is one of the most highly qualified Oncologists in Lahore.

Number of Breast cancer screenings has seen a significant rise in Lahore during the last few years – thanks to rigorous awareness campaigns and highly trained Oncologists in Lahore. This has certainly led to a greater proportion of patients diagnosed at an early stage hopefully translating into an enhanced survival of breast cancer patients. However, it seems breast cancer chemoprevention remains relatively unemphasized and ignored even by physicians treating breast cancer on a daily basis. According to a US study, about 15 % of women above the age of 35 years were noted to be eligible for breast cancer chemoprevention. The primary objective of this manuscript is to sensitize the non-oncology health care provider regarding the importance of this valuable treatment strategy. Though a few and far between, those who may qualify for this strategy need to be identified.
