DOCTORS and staff from Figtree Medical in Maleny came together this week to mark Breast Cancer Awareness Month with a special morning tea and a splash of pink.
The team dressed in bright shades of pink to show their support for those affected by breast cancer and to spark important conversations within the community.
The event wasn’t just about raising awareness — it was also about encouraging early detection. Staff shared information with patients and visitors about the importance of regular screenings, self-checks and booking timely mammograms.
By creating a warm and welcoming space, the clinic aimed to make these conversations easier and less daunting.
Practice Manager Katie said the morning tea was a simple but meaningful way to show solidarity. “Breast cancer touches so many lives. We want our patients to know they’re supported and that early detection can make a real difference,” she said.
