Narjust Florez: My father sharing his experience and the benefits of proper cancer staging in the DR
Narjust Florez shared a post by Teofilo Perez, President of The Dr. Herrera Khoury Clinical Laboratory on X, adding:
“My father became a cancer survivor Sept. 2023 when he was diagnosed with cancer.
He had 2 options feel sorry for himself (he has had a healthy lifestyle) or become a patient advocate.
He chose the 2nd, he is now sharing his experience and the benefits of proper cancer staging in the DR.
So proud!”
Quoting Teofilo Perez’s post:
“Thank you Cimen for your invitation to your event on PET-CT, thank you for the knowledge, thank you for your attention.”
