I am a breast surgical oncologist and health services researcher focused on health equity and health care disparities among breast cancer patients. My research examines how socioeconomic disparities, race/ethnicity, geography, financial toxicity, stress and insurance affect clinical outcomes in breast cancer. The overarching goal of my research is to eliminate disparities in breast cancer treatment and mortality rooted in social determinants of health.
