Cancer

Overview

Sarah A. McLaughlin, M.D., a surgical oncologist at Mayo Clinic's campus in Jacksonville, Florida, discusses strategies for effective breast cancer treatment. When specialists at Mayo Clinic think about breast cancer treatment, they consider a comprehensive strategy of the breast and what could be going on elsewhere in the body. Then they determine how to create a treatment plan that addresses all of those issues. The future of breast cancer care is becoming more and more targeted, resulting in better outcomes and fewer side effects.
