- [Dr. Abou-Jaoude] We have a breast care
program at Baptist Health Lexington,

and our goal is to provide our
patients with the highest quality

of care that's available.

In order to do that, we have
a comprehensive program

that we have developed, and in this
program, we have a team of dedicated

health professionals from different
specialties and different disciplines.

So really, we have a comprehensive
program, and when we see the patient,

we want to make sure that we all work
together to make sure that we can provide

that patient with the best care that
we have available at this time.

- [Dr. Moore] I think our
multidisciplinary team at Baptist

does an excellent job of putting a patient
kind of in the center of a circle that

we have of all of our specialists.

And each patient, we talk about all
the specifics of their pathology,

their radiology, and we come up
with a plan for each patient

that will optimize their outcome.

We work really well together,
the breast radiologist, the geneticist,

the medical oncologist,
and the radiation oncologist,

and then, once again,
the nurse navigators.

The goal of breast cancer care is to make
sure that patients feel that they made

the best decision with what they had,
and the ultimate goal is, certainly,

that we have no residual cancer once
we have completed their treatment

and that we continue to follow them
and they continue to thrive and do well.
