Sue Healey is an oncologist based in Brisbane, working from Herston Road in 4029, QLD. Her practice looks after people dealing with cancer, including breast cancer and ovarian cancer. She also supports patients where cancer can show up in less common ways, like breast cancer in men, which many people don’t expect until they’re facing it.
Alongside standard cancer care, Sue’s work includes conditions linked to genes. For example, she looks after people with Familial Adenomatous Polyposis (FAP), a genetic condition that can raise cancer risk over time. She also deals with ring chromosome conditions, including Ring Chromosome 12 and Ring Chromosome 6. These are rare, and the details matter, because the right plan can depend on how a person’s cancer risk is worked out.
In many cases, oncology is about more than one treatment. It’s about making sense of results, sorting out what comes next, and keeping a clear plan as things change. Sue focuses on care that stays practical and grounded. That means talking through options, helping people understand the likely steps ahead, and supporting patients and families while they deal with the stress and uncertainty that can come with a new diagnosis.
Over time, her clinical work brings together both cancer treatment and the genetic side of care. That combination can be helpful when there’s a strong family history, when there are multiple health issues to consider, or when genetic findings need to be used to guide decisions. Sue’s approach stays focused on the patient in front of her, with careful attention to the type of cancer and the bigger risk picture.
