multidisciplinary team
St. Francis holds Multidisciplinary Team Meetings that are attended by surgeons, medical oncologists, radiation oncologists, radiologists, pathologists, our Breast Health Navigators and Genetic Counselor, and nurses who meet weekly to discuss patients whose tests come back with a positive result for cancer. They review each case as a team, agreeing upon the best course of treatment prior to surgery. In effect, our patients receive a first, second and third opinion all at the same time for free.
