The future of breast cancer treatment is hopeful.
Show Notes:
As we continue to recognize Breast Cancer Awareness month in October, I sit back down with Dr. Veronica Jones, Chief of the Division of Breast Surgery at City of Hope.
The focus of this conversation highlights current breast cancer treatment options as well as exciting new treatment pathways coming down the pipeline.
Dr. Jones shares her love and passion for her medical research, her empowerment derived from her personal faith as a pastor’s wife, and her motivation for becoming an oncologist.
With highly trained and committed medical researchers and surgeons such as Dr. Jones, the fight against breast cancer continues to move forward with innovative and promising diagnostic and treatment technologies.
