https://cultivatehealthequity.com/about Christy Boucher, a seasoned nurse with 12 years of experience who has dedicated her life to healthcare and advocacy. Her journey through breast cancer and the choices she made have shaped her into an advocate for early cancer screening and detection.
Christy shares her story so we can learn from her experiences. When faced with a breast cancer diagnosis, patients often encounter the challenging decision of choosing between a lumpectomy and a double mastectomy. While we will not get into the science of these procedures, we will highlight the decision-making process, the importance of communication, and the relationship between patient and healthcare provider, which is truly a health equity issue.
