VIDEO - HERSTORY: Barbara Shares Advice For Women With Gynecologic Cancers

March 19, 2009 - 4:03pm 475 reads 0 comments

Barbara lends advice for women with gynecologic cancers.

Barbara:
Oh my, I can’t stress this enough. I think when a woman has a diagnosis of some kind of a gynecologic diagnosis that she must find the right practitioner. This practitioner has got to be so converse in gynecology, she has got to know oncology, she has got to know surgery. It is so very important that she knows everything. It’s got to all come together.

She has got to find a gynecologic oncologist who is so converse in surgery, all the areas, don’t settle for anything less. Please, this is your life. This is your life; you only get one crack at this. Please find the right person, find an expert. Check out their credentials, ask around, meet the person, talk to the person, make sure that they are the right person for you and make sure that they have all the expertise that you need because they’re going to save your life.
