The Cancer Report
|
 The Cancer Report, a 30-minute local television program presented by Memorial Medical Center’s Cancer Services, is hosted by David Shiba, MD (right), Medical Oncologist and Medical Director of Memorial’s Cancer Services. The Cancer Report’s purpose is to raise the awareness of cancer prevention, early detection, and report on medical breakthroughs in the diagnosis and treatment of cancer. Programs also feature local and national cancer-related organizations and highlight their services. Each program includes a survivor story. Whether the story is from a cancer survivor or their caregiver, these stories are full of hope and encouragement that you can live through and beyond a diagnosis of cancer.
