BIO

Breast Cancer | Breast Cancer in Young Women | Metastatic Breast Cancer | Pregnancy-Associated Breast Cancer.

 

My clinical expertise is in the multidisciplinary treatment of all stages of breast cancer and survivorship.  I have a particular interest in neoadjuvant chemotherapy, and the unique challenges of treating of younger women with breast cancer.  I serve as director of the Breast Multidisciplinary Clinic, which remains the first and thus longest running site in Kentucky accredited by the National Accredited Program of Breast Centers (NAPBC.)  In this capacity, I work closely with mammographers, pathologists, breast surgeons and radiation oncologists to ensure patients get the most effective and accurate treatment specific for his or her tumor type..
