Julie Clingerman and Megan Bishop, Breast Cancer Patients
When Megan and Julie faced breast cancer, they faced it together, with a care team supporting them every step of the way.
Transcription
Julie: Megan and I are best friends, and we do everything together.
Both: And we mean everything.
Megan: We even went through our breast cancer journey together.
Julie: I had just turned 40, and shockingly, at my very first mammogram, I came out of it with a diagnosis of breast cancer.
Megan: Shortly after Julie's diagnosis, I found a lump on my left breast, and was also diagnosed with bilateral breast cancer, stage two.
Julie: And we were both treated at the Williams Center for Breast Health with Summa. They really went above and beyond.
Julie: The comprehensive care that we received, from mammograms to double mastectomy and beyond, was really incredible.
Megan: Life now, there's a new normal, but the support and the team at Summa has really helped us along that journey.
Julie: I can't stress enough how important it is for everybody to get out there and do early detection through mammograms and screenings, but also through your self-examinations, as Megan did.
