Know Your Risk! A Presentation in Honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month

on Oct 14, 2016 in Events & News

Know Your Risk!  A Presentation for Patients and Providers by Dr. Cecilia Stroede in Honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month in October

 

Wednesday, October 19, 2016 6-7 p.m.

Pine Ridge Surgery Center

2500 Pine Ridge Boulevard

Wausau, Wisconsin 54401

 

Do you know your risk of developing breast cancer?

Do you know the appropriate age for you to have a mammogram screening?

Do you know what you can do to decrease your risk of developing breast cancer?

Physicians are finding the answers to these questions may not be so simple.  There is no one-size-fits-all model to breast cancer risk assessment, screening, and prevention.  When it comes to breast cancer, personalized medicine is the best approach.  Join Dr. Cecilia Stroede for a free, informative talk where she will explore the various risk factors for breast cancer, lifestyle prevention tips, and tailoring your breast cancer screening to you.  The presentation will be followed by a Q & A session with Dr. Stroede.

 

 

Light refreshments will be provided.

We encourage you to join us to learn more about breast cancer and the steps you should take to beat this disease!

Event will take place on Wednesday, October 19, 2016 from 6-7 p.m. at Pine Ridge Surgery Center, 2500 Pine Ridge Boulevard, Wausau, Wisconsin 54401
