November is Lung Cancer Awareness Month
Lung cancer kills more
Americans each year than breast, colon, and prostate cancer
combined.
If you or a friend or loved one has lung cancer, come
and learn about this disease – what it is, why it is so difficult to treat, and
what progress is being made locally and throughout the nation.
Please join us on Tuesday, November 4 and Wednesday, November
5 (9 am – 3 pm both days) for the Lung
Cancer Awareness Health Fair and on Thursday, November 20 for "Putting
the Puzzle Pieces Together: The Latest in Lung Cancer Research".
A panel discussion moderated by Carleen Wild of NBC 15 will include:
- Toby
Campbell, MD – Medical Oncologist specializing in lung
cancer and palliative care
- Tracey Weigel, MD – Thoracic
Surgical Oncologist
- Greg Richards, MD – Radiation
Oncologist
- J. Scott Ferguson, MD - Pulmonologist specializing
in lung cancer
- Perspectives from several lung cancer survivors
To RSVP for this event, contact Colleen
Gavin, (608) 263-0160.
