Dr Corinne Jones is a senior specialist general surgeon, who offers a multidisciplinary service dedicated to breast patients at St John of God Subiaco Hospital.

Dr Jones has extensive experience in the diagnosis and treatment of breast cancer, including Breast Screen WA detected cancers, benign and borderline breast lumps, abnormal calcifications, nipple discharge and breast infections.

Dr Jones works closely with plastic surgeons, other specialists, junior hospital doctors, nurses, pastoral care, psychologists, geneticists, physiotherapists and occupational therapists, who assist with arm movement and lymphoedema management.

All breast cancer cases and complex non-cancerous cases are discussed at the weekly St John of God Subiaco Hospital Breast Multidisciplinary Team Meeting (MDM/MDT).

Dr Jones has excellent surgical outcomes and low complication rates. She always aims to provide patients with the best cosmetic result, incorporating some oncoplastic breast techniques as required. She works closely with experienced plastic surgeons, who offer both implant and tissue-based, immediate and delayed, breast reconstruction after mastectomy.

Dr Jones offers the new Magseed localisation technique (as well as the traditional hookwire localisation) to help in the removal of non-palpable breast cancers and breast lumps. In selected patients Dr Jones offers a single dose of intraoperative radiotherapy (IORT) with the radiotherapist in theatre, at the time the breast cancer is removed. This localised radiotherapy is instead of whole breast radiation over two to six weeks of breast surgery.

Dr Jones graduated in Medicine from the University of Western Australia (UWA) in 1989. After training in Perth teaching hospitals, she obtained her Fellowship in General Surgery from the Royal Australasian College of Surgeons (FRACS) in 1998. Dr Jones was the first woman born and raised in WA to undertake and complete a surgical fellowship (she was born at St John of God Mt Lawley Hospital).

In late 1999 Dr Jones travelled to the United Kingdom and undertook post-fellowship training in breast and endocrine surgery and worked as a locum consultant surgeon. This included NHS positions in Glasgow, Scotland, and Sheffield and Boston in England.

During 2004 she undertook a 12-month Endocrine Surgery Fellowship in Poitiers, France. She returned to Boston, England, as Director of the Breast Service at the Pilgrim Hospital, and she established a successful thyroid and parathyroid service.

Dr Jones received the Fellowship of the Royal College of Surgeons of England (FRCS) in 2004. She arrived back in Perth in 2008 and worked as a consultant General and Breast Surgeon at Sir Charles Gairdner Hospital from 2008 to 2009. She was a member of the Board of Directors of Breast Cancer Care WA from 2009 to 2022.

Dr Jones has run a practice at St John of God Subiaco Hospital since 2008. During this time she has successfully provided expert care to breast, thyroid and parathyroid patients. She ceased thyroid and parathyroid work in July 2023.

Since December 2022 Dr Jones has enjoyed also working as a locum consultant breast surgeon with the Breast Assesment Unit at Fiona Stanley and Fremantle Hospitals.
