Este fue el caso de Debbie Besse, de Fairhaven. Debbie relata su roce con el c\u00e1ncer de mama y da cr\u00e9dito a sus proveedores de Southcoast Health por darle una nueva oportunidad en la vida y educarla sobre la importancia de las pruebas de detecci\u00f3n como reconocemos. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.southcoast.org\/es\/pink\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Mes de sensibilizaci\u00f3n sobre el c\u00e1ncer de mama<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Empez\u00f3 como una revisi\u00f3n peri\u00f3dica con su m\u00e9dico de atenci\u00f3n primaria, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.southcoast.org\/es\/doctors\/john-podkowa-jr-do\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Dr. John Podkowa<\/a>. Visitar al Dr. Podkowa era una pr\u00e1ctica habitual para Debbie, ya que tiene un problema de tiroides. Ella ha sido un paciente del Dr. Podkowa durante los \u00faltimos 10 a\u00f1os y s\u00f3lo tiene cr\u00edticas positivas cuando se habla de \u00e9l.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-receiving-your-regularly-scheduled-mammogram\">Realizaci\u00f3n de la mamograf\u00eda programada <\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>\"El Dr. Podkowa no s\u00f3lo me escucha, sino que a veces incluso puede predecir las preguntas que puedo tener antes incluso de que las formule, seguido de que siempre tiene las respuestas\", dice Debbie. \"Es simplemente maravilloso\".<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>La capacidad de escucha del Dr. Podkowa se deriva de su excelencia cl\u00ednica, que demostr\u00f3 durante la revisi\u00f3n de Debbie. Al revisar su historial, enseguida se dio cuenta de que no se hab\u00eda hecho la mamograf\u00eda programada.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\"Hab\u00eda sido negligente a la hora de hacerme una mamograf\u00eda y llevaba un par de a\u00f1os sin hac\u00e9rmela\", dice. \"El Dr. Podkowa lo reconoci\u00f3 y, con su trato amable y gentil, insisti\u00f3 en que me hiciera una\".<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ese mismo d\u00eda sali\u00f3 de su consulta con una cita para hacerse una mamograf\u00eda en el Southcoast Health Breast Center una semana m\u00e1s tarde. A partir de ese momento, todo fue un torbellino. Debbie se hizo la mamograf\u00eda, se comunicaron los resultados a radiolog\u00eda y, un d\u00eda despu\u00e9s, le programaron una biopsia de seguimiento.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\"Apareci\u00f3 como c\u00e1ncer\", dice. \"Todo fue muy r\u00e1pido. Pas\u00e9 de la visita del Dr. Podkowa a la mamograf\u00eda, a la biopsia y luego a la operaci\u00f3n en una semana.\"<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Un diagn\u00f3stico impactante y emocionalmente abrumador <\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Debbie recuerda que se sinti\u00f3 conmocionada y emocionalmente abrumada. Se dio cuenta de que, aunque era joven y no ten\u00eda antecedentes de c\u00e1ncer de mama en su familia, pod\u00eda ocurrir. Sin embargo, atribuye su experiencia positiva a la atenci\u00f3n continuada que recibi\u00f3 de sus proveedores de Southcoast.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\"Fue fenomenal\", dice. \"Desde el Dr. Podkowa hasta mi onc\u00f3loga, la Dra. Susan Kim, todos fueron muy profesionales y manejaron mi atenci\u00f3n con elegancia y siempre estuvieron al tanto de todo\".<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Debbie comparte que su diagn\u00f3stico inesperado se vio suavizado por la atenci\u00f3n que recibi\u00f3. Siempre se sinti\u00f3 reconfortada por la profesionalidad de sus m\u00e9dicos y del personal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\"Sent\u00ed verdadera confianza en la atenci\u00f3n que estaba recibiendo\", dice. \"Eso me hizo sentir que todo iba a ir bien\".<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Un nuevo cap\u00edtulo de la vida <\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Debbie transmite este mensaje a todas las mujeres: \"No renuncien a sus revisiones m\u00e9dicas peri\u00f3dicas. H\u00e1ganlas. Aunque a veces resulten inc\u00f3modos, merece la pena dedicarles tiempo. Nunca des por sentado, bas\u00e1ndote en los antecedentes o en la edad, que no hay potencial [para una enfermedad]\".<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ocho a\u00f1os despu\u00e9s, Debbie sigue sin tener c\u00e1ncer. Visita al Dr. Kim todos los a\u00f1os y sigue siendo una paciente leal al Dr. Kim. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.charityfootprints.com\/SouthcoastHealth\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Dr. Podkowa<\/a>. Este mes, Debbie est\u00e1 deseando casarse y labrarse un futuro con su marido.
