BreastScreen Victoria has spaced out appointment times due to COVID-19 infection control measures. We are experiencing high demand for our service and it may take longer than usual to get an appointment. Thank you for your patience.
Due to changes in appointment times, some appointments cannot be booked online. Please call our Contact Centre on 13 20 50 if you cannot book online.
Clients must wear a face covering, such as a mask, at all of our screening clinics. Please bring a face covering to wear at your appointment. You may be refused a breast screen if you do not have a valid reason for not wearing a mask, and it poses a safety risk to our staff and other clients.
Alert
- If you have travelled overseas or to New South Wales or the Greater Brisbane area in the last 14 days OR you feel/have felt unwell OR you have come into contact with a suspected or confirmed case of coronavirus COVID-19, please don’t book online. Call our Contact Centre on 13 20 50 and one of our agents will help you.

If you have any new breast symptoms or changes, please see your doctor without delay. It is currently very safe to see your doctor and have a physical examination, and any recommended diagnostic imaging. If your doctor recommends a specialist appointment, it will be readily available as will any treatment you require. You can find information on breast cancer symptoms on our website.
If you have an increased risk of breast cancer due to family history of breast and/or ovarian cancer or have had breast cancer in the past, please see your doctor to discuss if it is appropriate for you to wait for your breast screen.
New South Wales and Victorian residents should carefully consider border restrictions before booking a breast screen or assessment appointment interstate. Please see our update here before making a booking or call our Contact Centre on 13 20 50 to discuss your breast screen.
