Hard truths: STILL no evidence that surgical treatment for stage 4 breast cancer changed much. Doesnโ€™t change survival or quality of life; MAY slightly improve locoregional control but the value of that is limited. #stage4needsmore #ASBrS23

Replying to @Liz_ORiordan
@Liz_ORiordan packs the room at #ASBrS23, describing her road from cycling breast surgeon to breast cancer patient, and the misinformation she received about avoiding exercise when it actually supported her cancer treatment tolerance.โค๏ธ

Thanks @AVertrees ! It was so much fun chatting and I am a huge fan of the BOSS podcast! ๐ŸŽ™๏ธ Amy does a lot of coaching, and finds that a mid career slump is extremely common, but perhaps not talked about enough. Who else has experienced this?
The latest BOSS podcast features Dr. David Canes, a urologist located in Boston who found a way out of his mid-career slump by creating an innovative product that will help save time in clinic. @CanesDavid Listen to his episode here: bosssurgery.com/podcasts/bosโ€ฆ
