- Dr. Monique Gary will be the Keynote speaker during lunch. “Dr. Mo” – is a breast surgeon, educator, and advocate for wellness. Dr. Gary currently serves as the Medical Director of the Grand View Health/Penn Cancer Network cancer program, where she also serves as director of the breast program.
Dr. Gary believes in the power of the connection between mind, body, and spirit to promote overall wellness, and is passionate about addressing the disparities in health outcomes for marginalized people. By both exploring the inequities that lead to these disparities and helping to create pathways for access, Dr. Gary’s work, which has been published online, in print media, and featured in peer reviewed journals, aims to make wellness – physical, mental, and emotional – accessible to all.
Dr. Gary completed her medical degree at the Philadelphia College of Osteopathic Medicine, and her general surgery training at UMass, followed by the Breast Surgical Oncology Fellowship at Georgetown University Hospital. She holds faculty appointments in surgery and serves as the Adjunct Associate Professor of the Dartmouth Institute for Health Policy and Clinical Practice and as a medical advisor/contributor for national breast cancer advocacy organizations, including Living Beyond Breast Cancer, Touch, the Black Breast Cancer Alliance, Tigerlily Foundation, The Chrysalis Initiative, and the National LGBT Cancer Network.
Join us to hear her thoughts on The Promise of Precision Wellness. As medicine becomes more and more tailored to the unique needs of the individual, how can we make sure that we are not just focused on disease but on the whole person? What’s the science behind wellness for cancer survivors and thrivers?
