Candice N. Thompson, MD, MSc, FACS

Had a great time serving as a table moderator at #ASC2026 in Orlando this past week. It’s a great reminder that everyone’s journey to be becoming a surgeon is different. Also, I would love to have a pink LigaSure.

@symonemsnbc It’s great that you are bringing light to these alarming statistics!

WATCH: @astaffordmd talks about breast cancer among women of color and the importance of regular breast cancer screenings. “Everybody needs to be aware of their family history and Black women especially because we do know that they have some worst outcomes.” #SYMONE #MSNBC

Write to your local representative to support the 'Find It Early Act!' This act calls for insurance coverage for mammograms and diagnostic mammograms as well as additional screening for women with dense breasts and other risk factors, with no cost sharing. mydensitymatters.org/breast-cancer-…

Join us tomorrow as we continue the conversation about breast health and the community. eventbrite.com/e/616198916547

I cannot emphasize how important this development is. Black women are more likely to present at younger ages, with more aggressive disease, & at later stage. Now we have a chance to catch these deadly cancers before it's too late @ASBrS @AmericanCancer: cnn.com/2023/05/09/hea….
