Maurice Berkowitz, Clinical Professor of Medicine at UCLA Health, Founder of MyCANDOR Inc, shared on LinkedIn:
“October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, and there is no shortage of breast cancer information out there. The hard part is knowing what to trust.
I joined Everybody Loves Boobs: The Podcast to talk through some of the myths I hear most often in clinic and what the studies actually show.
What I hope listeners take away:
- A headline about a new study rarely tells the whole story
- Good questions for your care team are one of the most powerful tools you have
- Breast cancer affects men too, and they deserve the same awareness and care
Thank you to Christina Thomas, for a thoughtful conversation and for creating a space where people can ask real questions.
Give it a listen and share it with someone who could use it.
