It was truly an inspiring and rejuvenating meeting at the @BreastCancerRT National Meeting. An additional surprise at the meeting was Former First Lady @DrBiden moderating the “Innovative Persistence: Advancing Breast Cancer Navigation” Panel which included incredible experts in our field such as @AmericanCancer Chief Patient Officer, Dr. @arifkamalmd. Dr. Biden also shared her experience as being a cancer caregiver. This meeting will undoubtedly push those of us who attended the meeting to work even harder when we get home to ensure our #breastcancer patients are receiving the best quality and access to care they deserve, regardless of geographic location. #ACSNBCRT #NBCRT2025
