Trotter and Breast Surgical Oncology Team Receive President Award

Breast Oncology Team receiving President AwardKathy Trotter, associate professor, and colleagues recently received the Duke Presidential Award at a ceremony on February 25 in Page Auditorium. According to a write up with Duke Today, the nine women of the Breast Surgical Oncology Team are compassionate guides for patients undergoing care for breast cancer and work to make Duke's care more efficient and effective. By constantly looking out for the needs of the patients and spearheading outreach efforts, the group has become an integral part of Duke's cancer care.

"The nine incredible women who make up the Duke Breast Surgery APP team form a strong link between patients and the health system, and provide both high quality care and strong advocacy for patients who face the frightening diagnosis of breast cancer," wrote Shelley Hwang, Chief of Breast Surgical Oncology and Vice Chair for Research in the Department of Surgery.

Congratulations to Kathy and the entire team!
