Lucio Gordan, President and Managing Physician at Florida Cancer Specialists and Research Institute, shared a post by Florida Cancer Specialists & Research Institute, adding:
“I’m honored to participate in the upcoming 7th Annual Conquering Veteran Cancer, Together panel, an issue that is profoundly important.
Veterans face unique challenges when navigating a cancer diagnosis: from complex care pathways to barriers in coordination and access. These experiences deserve not only recognition but action.
At Florida Cancer Specialists & Research Institute, our team has been committed to addressing these challenges head-on. Together, we’ve built a program focused on improving access, coordination, and support for Veteran patients, who deserve care as dedicated as their service.
I’m looking forward to sharing the stage with my fellow colleagues, visionary leaders in oncology, to exchange perspectives, learn from one another, and continue advancing meaningful solutions for those who have served.
