We all hear about breast cancer, but what do you do if diagnosed with the disease? It seems wherever you turn you are flooded with opinions and treatment plans that can be confusing and can make the process daunting.
“Women can feel overwhelmed and confused by so many different opinions,” says Dr. Dr. Patricia Clark, board certified general surgery physician on staff at Silver Cross Hospital. “Patients will feel more at ease if they understand how and why their physician makes certain decisions.”
Join Dr. Patricia Clark for a free women’s only program, Navigating Breast Cancer, on Wednesday, November 9 from 6:30 to7:30 p.m., to learn about common fears and confusions about breast cancer treatments.
