My Approach
MY STORY

Given my lived experience as a breast disease specialist, I met many breast cancer survivors who continue to suffer after the completion of treatment . Many of them have told me that while they felt they had lots of information and support during their illness, once treatment stopped, they entered a whole new world. I felt their anxieties, uncertainties and fears. I realized that we can do more to help our patients. I felt responsible and decided to create this website to provide them with trusted information and support.
My intention is that every breast cancer survivor who comes across this space finds something relevant and helpful here. I also hope that other physicians find some guidance to support the provision of breast cancer survivorship care.
