Mrs Claire King
Lead Mammographer
I am the Lead Mammographer at Southampton Spire and have been working within the Hampshire Breast Clinic since its start. I qualified as a mammographer within the NHS, having completed a degree in Radiotherapy in 2010. I moved to the Spire group in 2015, working initially in Portsmouth before moving to Southampton in 2016. I am passionate about providing the best care for my patients and have been recognised through the award of an Iris Award for going above and beyond for my patients. In addition to my close working relationship with the Radiology team, I work extremely closely with Lyn in the Business Team, to ensure that the needs of each individual patient are understood and help them to have a seamless journey through the one stop clinic.

Experience
I have extensive experience within mammography and am able to perform Tomosynthesis and Vaccum Assisted Biopsies and play a large role in other mammography-led interventional procedures. In 2023, I furthered my specialist education with the award of a Masters degree in Breast Cancer Care.
