  A Survivor’s Story

  “I can’t express the importance of self exams when it comes to breast cancer. The morning that I found the lump in my breast I called The Hutchinson Clinic and scheduled a mammogram. I was able to get in the next day. The next morning I had the mammo and they were concerned as well so they had me go get a sonogram. I didn’t have to wait for that either. They made time for me in between other appointments that same morning. I was then sent to see Dr. Nordwald who gave me the results of all of my tests, that’s when I received the news that I had breast cancer. Dr. Nordwald referred me to a surgeon (Dr. Clarke) and to the oncologist (Dr. Estephan). Within the week I had another mammogram, a biopsy, and a DNA test. All of these tests confirming that I did have cancer and the best way to treat it. I was on the fast track to getting the cancer out of my body and to start healing. I had meetings with the doctors on what my options were and I was encouraged to do my own research to have questions ready to ask so that I had the answers and knew what my treatment options were. I couldn’t have gone through the past year without the team from the clinic, they helped me maintain a positive attitude and a can do spirit.” by Jennifer Weathers
