ABC Seminar

The 17th Annual Cindy L. Dertinger

Advanced Breast Cancer Seminar: Tools for the Journey

Living with Metastatic Breast Cancer

A special thank you to our presenters at our most recent Advanced Breast Cancer Seminar on October 9, 2020. Our 2021 ABC Seminar will be scheduled soon. Contact us with questions or to be added to our mailing list.

Presenters:

Moderator: Farham Imran, MD, Rochester General Hospital

“Nutrition and Cancer: Hope and Unanswered Questions”

Presented by: Thomas Campbell, MD, Highland Hospital

“Updates in Treatments and Emerging Therapies”

Presented by: Carla Falkson, MD, Comprehensive Breast Care at Pluta

“Psychosocial Needs When Facing a Cancer Diagnosis”

Presented by: Tziporah Rosenberg, PhD, University of Rochester Medical Center

Survivor Speakers:

Pat Battaglia and Andrea Reynolds 

This year we will explore the latest research in the medical management of metastatic breast cancer; nutritional strategies and the psychosocial needs when facing an advanced breast cancer diagnosis. While extensive support and information networks are in place for those with primary breast cancer, it is more difficult for those with metastatic disease to find the resources they need. Those living with advanced disease face different challenges than those with early breast cancer diagnoses. This annual seminar hopes to address some of these concerns.

Family, friends, caregivers and care providers are also invited. Contact us for more information.

Support for this program is being provided by M & T Bank in memory of their friend and employee Cindy L. Dertinger, who died of metastatic breast cancer in March 2003.
