Woman was diagnosed with cancer after her earlier request for a mammogram ‘was refused’, Medical Council hears

Doctor is facing fitness-to-practise panel over allegations including poor professional performance



A medical specialist, Dr. Jaroslaw Krzyzanowski, is facing allegations of poor professional performance after allegedly refusing a patient's (Ioanna Stefanakou) request for a mammogram despite symptoms like an inverted nipple. The patient was later diagnosed with stage-two breast cancer after a subsequent mammogram referral due to a lump found eight months later. An expert witness testified that a mammogram would be the first line of action if a patient had nipple retraction.
