Solis Breast Care and Surgery Centre (Solis) and Luma Women’s Imaging Centre (Luma) welcomed the media and invited guests on 25 May 2022 for a media experiential day – an exclusive opportunity to find out how Solis and Luma work hand-in-hand together and becoming an integrated breast centre in Singapore, bringing together breast surgeons and breast radiologists to provide personalised breast care that patients deserve.

Welcome speeches were shared by Dr Tan Yah Yuen, Medical Director, Senior Consultant and Breast Surgeon of Solis Breast Care and Surgery Centre and Dr Eugene Ong, Imaging Director, Consultant, Radiologist, and Co-founder of Luma Women’s Imaging Centre. The media also had an exclusive tour and were introduced to the facilities’ diagnostics equipment (i.e. 3D mammogram, ultrasound, MRI, Operating Theatre and more), to gain insights on how Solis and Luma strive to deliver professional expertise and experience for the patients.

In the pursuit to educate and raise more awareness on breast care and breast health, Solis unveiled The Art of Hope as part of its Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) efforts.

The Art of Hope is a silent art auction where part of the sales proceeds raised will be donated to Humanitarian Organisation for Migration Economics (HOME) to offer complimentary consultation, diagnostics, and/or treatments to care for female foreign domestic workers. Miss Ruchita Chheda, representative and Senior Manager from HOME was also invited to share a few words about this meaningful partnership that the NGO is looking forward to helping its beneficiaries.

The media experiential day concluded with a fruitful media roundtable session, exclusively led and moderated by Dr Esther Chuwa, Senior Consultant and Breast Surgeon of Solis Breast Care and Surgery Centre. Many took the opportunity to learn more about breast health care, how CAN-CARE our post-care partner help cancer patients and survivors cope with their lifestyle and emotional needs, and essentially how Solis and Luma come together as a multidisciplinary approach, providing comprehensive and personalised care from consultation, diagnostics to treatments and after care for the patients.

About The Art of Hope: A Silent Art Auction

The Art of Hope showcases a beautiful one-of-a-kind art exhibition for patients, caregivers, and the public. As the theme suggests, the art pieces seek to instil HOPE and bring forth the message that there is HOPE in the fight against breast cancer. Joining Solis on this meaningful initiative are local artists Christina Lau, Christine Lok, Gale Choong, Ieo Gek Ching, Jennifer Soon, and Zhang Kaini.

Artworks by the collaborating artists will be displayed in Solis Paragon from 25 May – 30 September 2022 on a rotational basis.
