“What an absolutely incredible program Dr. Josh Neman has put together! This took great investment in time and effort to show the community that USC Norris Comprehensive Cancer Center truly cares about people – not just their patients but their whole community.
This took tremendous leadership on the part of Dr. Caryn Lerman to embrace the idea with such enthusiasm and to suggest the right partners to develop a successful first round of the program. Major kudos and congratulations to everyone involved!”
