During National Minority Health Month, IBCCP and SIU School of Medicine are offering a presentation and open discussion regarding breast reconstruction for people who have been diagnosed with breast cancer or anyone interested in this topic. Nicole Z. Sommer, MD FACS, director of Cosmetic Center, Institute for Plastic Surgery at SIU School of Medicine, will provide information and be available for questions. Along with Dr. Sommer, the open discussion will include a breast cancer nurse navigator and breast cancer survivors. Although the presentation is designed for those diagnosed with breast cancer, it is a great opportunity for caregivers, community outreach workers and nurses. CEUs will be offered. The event will take place on April 26 from 5-6 p.m. at Memorial Learning Center located at 228 W Miller St. in Springfield.
The opportunity is being offered in-person or by webinar.
