Michael Kupferman: Enjoyed this informative news segment featuring Dr. Christina Gomez, who addressed a new national study showing a rise in cancer among younger Americans.

Quoting Michael Kupferman, Senior Vice President of Clinical and Academic Network Development at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center, on LinkedIn:

”Enjoyed this informative news segment featuring Dr. Christina Gomez, a gastrointestinal oncologist at Banner MD Anderson Cancer Center, who addressed a new national study showing a rise in cancer among younger Americans.

The study, which showed a 19.4% increase in cancer cases between 2010 and 2019 among those under the age of 50, is something all of our cancer specialists at Banner Health are watching closely, as we work to continue providing the best care possible for each of our patients. It’s a great reminder of how important it is to pay attention to early warning signs, and to get regular cancer screenings, even among younger patients.”
