SBI Webinar: IDEA's Webinar on Breast Cancer and Patients with Disabilities

Our fourth webinar in the series is focused on patients with disabilities and how we can better serve this patient population. It will discuss disabilities we can see and those we cannot, the challenges patients with disabilities face in receiving healthcare overall, why patients are hesitant to seek medical care in general and how we can help, and how to make breast centers friendly and welcoming for these patients, both actively and passively.

IDEA has partnered with Meg Traci, as one of our keynote speakers, along with Mackenzie Jones from the University of Montana Rural Institute: A Center for Excellence in Developmental Disabilities, a group that is nationally recognized as leaders for education, research, and community engagement for people with disabilities. Dr. Chad Klochko is our second keynote speaker who will be discussing his personal experiences working as a radiologist with disabilities. A brief introduction regarding breast cancer statistics and disparities will be provided by Dr. Tanya Moseley. Dr. Rifat Wahab is our moderator.
