Blanchard Valley Health System and Mayo Clinic are joining forces to present a “Live & Learn” educational presentation on Thursday, November 30, 2023. The focus of this event will be on the science behind the prevention and treatment of breast cancer.

The presenters for this unique event include Dr. Bill Kose, vice president of special projects for BVHS; Dr. Derek Thomas, a physician with The Armes Family Cancer Care Center; and Dr. Sandhya Pruthi, a physician with Mayo Clinic. These experts will discuss the latest research and advancements in the prevention and treatment of breast cancer.

As a member of the Mayo Clinic Care Network, Blanchard Valley Health System is the first Ohio-based healthcare provider to have this distinction. This partnership allows BVHS to work closely with Mayo Clinic specialists to provide patients in Northwest Ohio with access to the most advanced medical knowledge and treatment options available today.

By collaborating with Mayo Clinic, BVHS physicians can access cutting-edge diagnostic tools and treatment recommendations that allow them to develop personalized treatment plans for their patients, including those battling cancer. They also have the opportunity to consult with Mayo Clinic experts and submit cases for evaluation.

The presentation will take place via Zoom from noon until 1 p.m., allowing individuals interested in learning more about breast cancer prevention and treatment options from leading medical professionals to attend from anywhere at any time.
