They will also cover the latest advancements in treatment and the significance of a multidisciplinary approach to patient care.

In a statement, Dr. Rahman said, “Breast cancer awareness and early diagnosis can save lives. This seminar provides an excellent opportunity to empower our community with the knowledge needed to make informed decisions about breast health.”
