It was February 2019 when Karen Samuels went in for her routine mammogram. “When I got to the age where I could start having mammograms, I never missed my annual appointments,” Karen stated. After her mammogram, she felt something was off and it turns out, her instinct was right. A few days later, Karen's primary care physician called her back and informed her they saw something suspicious on her scans and she needed to schedule a biopsy. Karen had her appointment with Dr. Eduardo Dias, breast surgeon at Ascension Saint Thomas Hospital Midtown, and he informed Karen that her biopsy showed cancerous cells. “I instantly felt the connection with Dr. Dias,” said Karen. “I knew him and his team were going to do everything they could to make sure I was okay.”
