Fauquier Hospital holds Breast Cancer Discussion
Thursday, March 31, 2016 @ 7:00 pm - 8:30 pm
Breast cancer affects one out of every eight women – and of course, indirectly, their friends and families. Although there is a genetic component to the disease, many women who develop breast cancer have no family history of the disease. Fauquier Hospital will host a panel discussion on breast cancer, featuring four physicians who can answer questions about screenings and diagnosis, risk factors, treatment options and reconstruction. They will also cover the new guidelines for screening recently released by the American Cancer Society. The forum starts at 7 p.m. in the Sycamore Room at Fauquier Hospital. Participants will include: plastic surgeon Dr. Timothy Mountcastle; radiologist Dr. David Reilly; hematologist/oncologist Dr. Syed Salman Ali; and general surgeon Dr. Kip Dorsey.
