What the Health: "Let's Talk About Breast Health" with Dr. Lashan Peiris
For our November installment of What the Health we heard from Dr. Lashan Peiris, an Oncoplastic surgeon specializing in breast reconstruction, who led an informative and engaging session all about breast health.
With one-in-eight women in Canada likely to be diagnosed with breast cancer in their lifetime, this important lecture walked viewers through the signs of breast cancer, the evolution of breast cancer treatments, and breast reconstruction surgery options available to patients in Alberta. Dr. Peiris also answered questions from the audience in detail.
