Even when breast cancer is the number one cause of death on women, when detected early, specialists have better outcomes for those patients, says Breast Surgery Specialist Jane Mendez. “Nowadays, the patient has a 98% survival when detected with early stage of this cancer. This is a great number, “ according to Mendez.
“The multidisciplinary approach a surgeon can do, coupled with a medical oncology or a radiation oncology, that can really maximize the cure, but early detection is key," she says.
