Together Against Breast Cancer: An Evening with Hunterdon Experts

Hunterdon Hematology Oncology, in partnership with Hunterdon Health, is proud to announce an empowering Breast Cancer Awareness event as part of our commitment to support our community. This significant event will take place on Thursday, October 5, 2023, at 6:00 PM in the Hunterdon Medical Center Auditorium, located at 2100 Wescott Drive, Flemington, NJ 08822.

October is internationally recognized as Breast Cancer Awareness Month, a time dedicated to increasing awareness of breast cancer, fostering understanding of its impact, and promoting early detection and treatment strategies. In honor of this crucial month, we invite active oncology patients, cancer survivors, their family, friends, and healthcare providers to join us for an informative and supportive discussion on breast cancer, our programs, the latest in treatment options, and comprehensive support mechanisms.

The event will feature presentations by distinguished specialists from our own teams:

• Dr. Megha Shah, a Medical Oncologist at Hunterdon Hematology Oncology
• Dr. Jennifer Montes, a Breast Surgeon from the Hunterdon Breast Surgery Center
• Dr. Zuhaib Ibrahim, a Plastic Surgeon from The Plastic Surgery Center of New Jersey

These experts will share their knowledge and insights on the forefront of breast cancer treatment, including innovative therapies and surgical techniques, and discuss the importance of mental and emotional support during the cancer journey. Attendees will have the opportunity to engage with our speakers, ask questions, and connect with others who share their journey.

At HHO, our goal is to ensure that every patient receives the most effective, cutting-edge treatments while maintaining an exceptional quality of care close to home. This event underscores our commitment to not only treat cancer, but to support our patients and their families throughout their journey, from diagnosis through treatment and beyond.

Breast cancer touches the lives of many, directly or indirectly. Whether you’re an active oncology patient, a valiant survivor, a supportive family member, a friend, or a dedicated healthcare provider, your presence adds a vital thread to the fabric of our community. This event is more than an opportunity to learn; it’s a chance to share stories, to find common ground, and to reinforce the idea that no one walks this path alone.

In the spirit of accessibility and inclusivity, we’re also offering a GoogleMeet virtual option, ensuring that everyone who wishes to participate can do so, regardless of their physical ability to attend. This hybrid approach reflects our commitment to reaching out, touching hearts, and spreading awareness far and wide.

We encourage you to mark your calendars, spread the word, and join us in this important conversation. Your voice, your story, and your presence can make a difference. Let’s come together to shine a light on breast cancer awareness, to embrace the latest in medical advancements, and to support each other in every step of the journey.
