BreastCancerCoach.com<\/a> was up and running.<\/p>\nThe urgency for comprehensive resource and support hubs like Breast Cancer Coach is evident. Women often face a daunting gap between diagnosis and understanding their options. Healthcare systems may only inform patients about educational materials or approaches specific to that health system rather than provide a broader scope of options.<\/p>\nOlga Ivanov<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\u201cAs a breast surgeon, when women [who\u2019ve been diagnosed] come to me, they\u2019re in that stress mode,\u201d Ivanov says. \u201c[With Breast Cancer Coach,] we\u2019re giving patients the space and time to calm down, to turn off that fight or flight psychological response, and be able to put on their rational thinking cap.\u201d<\/p>\n
Breast Cancer Coach offers tailored services, emotional support and education to empower women in their care journey. Packages range from a free meet-the-coach call to hourly consultations to one-year VIP support. The services encompass personalized coaching, education and resources, as well as survivorship planning, addressing both immediate concerns and long-term well-being. And since the website is HIPPA-compliant, women can also securely submit their pathology reports for review by a medical professional.<\/p>\n
Bringing her extensive expertise to the team, Ivanov reviews each patient\u2019s case in her role as medical director at Breast Cancer Coach. She consults with Springer-Marcotte who then dives deep with the patient. Their partnership ensures that each case is thoroughly reviewed, allowing for more focused and personalized patient care.<\/p>\n
The team is also supported by other physicians whom they\u2019ve formed relationships within the industry over the years. These medical professionals span the entire field of breast cancer care, from pathologists to medical oncologists to reconstructive surgeons \u2014 some of whom Springer-Marcotte plans to partner with for a new series called \u201cAsk The Expert\u201d starting later this month. The free educational call is intended for patients wanting a better understanding of medical terms, surgical perspectives and more.<\/p>\n
\u201cThere\u2019s a tremendous need for women to have a better understanding of side effects and some of the medications they\u2019re prescribed,\u201d Springer-Marcotte says. \u201c[By having] a pharmacist join me to talk about side effects or to even have a radiation oncologist talk about different treatment options depending on [a woman\u2019s] stage of breast cancer \u2026 I\u2019m bringing the knowledge to the table so women have a better understanding.\u201d<\/p>\n
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, breast cancer is the most common<\/strong> cancer among U.S. women \u2014 with 240,000 diagnoses annually.<\/p><\/blockquote>\nWith Breast Cancer Awareness Month internationally recognized in October, Ivanov says that great strides have been made all because of a month like this, however, women shouldn\u2019t be complacent.<\/p>\n
\u201cMammograms still do save lives because if we [can] find cancer early,\u201d Ivanov says, \u201cwe have a very good chance of curing it most of the time.\u201d<\/p>\n
Emphasizing early detection is essential. In May of this year, the United States Preventive Services Task Force issued a recommendation lowering the age when women should start screening from 50 to 40 years old. It\u2019s recommended for women to prioritize this annual exam \u2014 as it can detect tiny calcifications much earlier on than ultrasounds \u2014 along with doing self-breast exams, Springer-Marcotte says.<\/p>\n
In a world where knowledge is key, Breast Cancer Coach is on its way to becoming a leading resource and welcoming space in the breast cancer community. Its positive impact extends beyond its strong presence throughout Florida to other states like California, Pennsylvania and Texas \u2014 and even to other countries like Canada and Peru.<\/p>\n
\u201cOver the years I\u2019ve learned so much and now is the time to take this knowledge that I have in the [breast cancer] field, the relationships that I have with physicians across the country [and] \u2026 use my gifts to serve other women to help make a stressful situation maybe a little less stressful,\u201d Springer-Marcotte says.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
