Me too! 😊 Thank you @RoswellPark for including former faculty too!!! I had a great time re-connecting! #SSO2025
We love being able to reconnect with our Roswell Park alumni - #SSO2025 felt like a good place to do just that! Our physicians had such a nice evening reuniting with past colleagues and watching the sunset over Tampa!

Excellent breast great debate topics and contenders! Split vote on omission of axillary surgery vs RT in low risk early BC, robotic nipple sparing mastectomy very intriguing but not ready for mainstream #SSO2025 @AndreaBarrio7 @AnnaWeissMD @DrJamesJakub @DrJudyBoughey

Cancer screenings are essential for detecting cancer early—often before symptoms appear—when treatment is most effective.
@RWJBarnabas together with @RutgersCancer urges those at average risk to follow the latest cancer screening guidelines.
