Dr Kekeff is a general surgeon with advanced training in breast surgery - having worked extensively in the best breast cancer centres in Australia and internationally.
After completing her general surgery fellowship in QLD, she was selected into the highly competitive and esteemed fellowship BreastSurgANZ training to further enhance her breast cancer treatment skills.
She had the privilege in New Zealand to be under the tutelage of Dr Peter Chin in Tauranga who is world renowned and a leader in his field of oncoplastic breast surgery.
At Australia’s leading cancer research and treatment centre; Chris O’ Brien Lifehouse in Sydney, Dr Kekeff has continued to expand on the high level development of her surgical skills at the forefront of breast cancer research.
As a woman, Dr Kekeff was particularly drawn to the area of breast surgery due to an innate understanding of the sensitive nature of breast disease and the complex interplay with both physical and emotional impact of it. It is for this reason that her mission is to create a Gold Coast Breast Centre to encompass the multifaceted aspect of breast surgery. She is dedicated to giving back the identity and dignity for women who have suffered from breast cancer.

Wide local excisions (lumpectomy), simple mastectomy and post mastectomy implant-based reconstructions, including nipple sparing options. Breast reduction with lift is a central part of her practice - for both malignant and benign conditions.
