Best customer service ever! I was buying for one of the breast for my mom, wasn’t sure about the size and needed it to arrive fast before I travel home, Gen from CS called me within the same day and sort it out. Also, they do deliver within 2 days! Amazing!

Zero stars. I wish I had heeded the other reviews. I won't bother with the details, my experience was the same as the other poor reviews - and I do not want any further dialogue with Gen Gord. Awful.

Finding Gen Gort ten days after my surgery has been a blessing. Gen was able to fit me in quickly, provide me with the right garments that gave immediate relief and support.
But most importantly Gen provided me with compassion, understanding and great care……right at the time when most needed.
On top of all of that, Gen was a great communicator from the start of my enquiry to the end of the consultation.

So Gen Gort - take a bow! Keep on being you and keep looking after all the women around you ️

Genevieve was most helpful with my fitting recently. After having two lumpectomies, first being over 13 years ago, I was unaware that this service was available. I’m so pleased with my new shapers. Thanks for all of your professional advice and assistance Genevieve.

I was referred to Genevieve by my breast care nurse at the hospital I had my lumpectomy last November. I had put up with a swollen breast and a lot of pain and discomfort for a couple of months after a year of chemo and radiation.
I has spent so much money on so many bras but couldn't find one to fit well.
As soon as I spoke to Genevieve, she listened to me and understood the need to see me quickly. I was lucky and got in to see her on the same day.
As soon as I walked in the door, Genevieve assessed me and knew exactly what I needed. The moment she fitted the bra to me I was overwhelmed with relief of the sheer comfort it instantly provided me.
She was very professional and understanding. Her help didn't just stop there. I was in the process of looking for a lymphoedema physio but hadn't got onto anyone yet. Genevieve realised the urgency of finding care for me that she instantly called a clinic who I was able to see that same day.
By the time I got home, the relief from the new bra and my physio appointment was so incredible, I had the best sleep in a long time.
I went back one week later to also get fitted for some bathers and there was a great range to chose from. As the swelling had subsided in my breast, she recommended a partial breast shaper to insert into my bra and bathers. And it made a big difference to how my breasts were shaped.
I am so glad I was put in touch with Genevieve.
She shows understanding for women, takes the time to listen and fits you to suit your body type and of course taking into consideration of your individual needs. She also provides very accurate and simple to follow instructions on how to get to her studio.
Thank you Genevieve, you have made me feel so much better.

Genevieve at Breast Care Victoria is a professional and caring person that I have referred many post surgical and breast cancer patients to for fittings. Her professional standards for dealing with such vulnerable patients is so highly valued.
Her strict protocols with mask wearing and infection control are one of the many reasons we feel confident to refer patients to her. She goes out of her way to individually assess everyone and look to best help everyone’s personal healing stage post surgery - a difficult task when dealing with inflammation and recovery, whether it be breast cancer, cosmetic surgery or other. Genevieve is clear, kind, compassionate and so experienced. Thanks for all you do Genevieve

Fitted me with the wrong garment, I was only offered one option to try on. It was meant to be for lower abdomen where I needed a full abdomen. Even though it was their mistake for incorrect fitting, they refused exchange. Unfair unreasonable

Genevieve went out of her way to help me when I bought the wrong size breast forms. She was very understanding and helpful and I am so happy with my much lighter breast forms. I highly recommend Breastcare Victoria
Thanks Genevieve for your support

I can’t thank Genevieve enough for assisting me in finding the right fitting post breast reduction bra and compression top for my arm repair.

Gen was very professional in all communications especially with Covid-19 restrictions, I felt very comfortable.
I now have great support for everyday and also an excellent sports bra.the quality of all products are exceptional.
Thank you so much for helping me on my journey.

It really was a pleasure to be fitted in Genevieve’s home studio, post reconstructive bilateral mastectomy.
I am a former bra designer and I have always sewn my own bras, in this instance I was unable to make my own garment and was recommended to get fitted at Breast Care Victoria by my plastics team from the Royal Melbourne Hospital.

Genevieve who is the face behind Breast Care Victoria is charming and very accommodating. She was swift to answer my queries and establish an appointment time that worked for me.

When I arrived Genevieve was warm and inviting and quickly set about finding the right garment for me. Being a former nurse that has worked in operating theatres and extensively with breast care, she has an amazing knowledge of what is required for recovery. There was instant relief for me when I was fitted with the right garment, definitely an "ahhh that feels so much better" moment.
Thank you Gen, you are an absolute gem and we are lucky to have your knowledge and professionalism in Melbourne. I can’t recommend Gen enough, she is doing an amazing job helping women to heal and feel their best post breast surgery. If you are wondering if you should get fitted, I would say, don’t hesitate, it’s totally worth it. Thank you, Karen Booker

A most positive meeting today with Genevieve Gort. I immediately felt at ease and comfortable with her and her advise. Was so happy to find some bathers for the incoming season that fit with absolute confidence. She was amazing as was her adorable company pup Ginger who happily kept me company. I so appreciate your help Gen and look forward to seeing you again when new bras are needed. Thank you so much for your help and expertise.

I was in need of abdominal support pre and post hernia repair surgery and wasn't quite sure where to turn. I contacted Genevieve hoping she might know where to point me but she assured me she had just what I needed. Being plus sized I had my doubts anything would fit but she was absolutely right, she had exactly the support garment I needed in exactly the right size I needed! She was kind and generous with her time and care and I can highly recommend her service.

Genevieve works with exceptional passion and knowledge about her products and women’s needs. Buying from her are not just bras and garments, but a sense of victory in the battle with breast cancer.

I found Genevieve very approachable and professional, she has a lot of knowledge and experience and a wonderful range of suitable wear, she makes sure you are happy and comfortable with your purchases. Her studio is intimate and comfortable and she spends a lot of time finding the most suitable forms and garments for your specific needs.

Genevieve got me into a well fitting bra and prosthesis that were just right for my body, after I had suffered for a year with poorly fitting ones. I cannot recommend her highly enough. Seeing her has been life changing for me.

My fiancé got an allergic reaction to one of their bras. So Genevieve (the owner) said to post the bra back to her for a refund. So all good (you’d think). But after posting it back to Genevieve, she never refunded the money, and she kept the bra (without any communication as to why there was no refund anymore). Don’t know how people can treat other people this way, especially after someone’s just been through surgery. Have some respect and human decency. We have texted and emailed Genevieve, but she won’t reply.

Once again I have had extremely favourable dealings with Genevieve. I have had a lot of difficulty buying suitable bras for myself since having had a mastectomy and then going on to have a reconstruction. Gen has been there the whole way through with not only friendly support but professional advice and services. Gen has an amazing range of bras and if you are in need of this type of service do not hesitate to get in contact with her, you will not be disappointed.
Genevieve has been extremely helpful & caring through my whole breast cancer journey. Genevieve is so professional in what she does but at the same time she is very approachable & friendly. She keeps her clients up to date with all the latest mastectomy garments. I would not hesitate to recommend anyone in need of the service she offers to make an appointment with her.
