Meet my Medical Team

There is quite a supporting cast in my Hundred Acre Wood.  And when you get stuck in a tough place, sometimes it takes all of them to pull you through.  A whole team of medical providers will be overseeing my treatment.  For those of you wanting to know exactly who they are, here is the list:

Dr. Michael Mertens (Primary care doctor)

Dr. Laura Dunbar (Surgeon/Breast Specialist):  Saint Thomas Midtown

Dr. Brian Hemphill (Medical Oncologist): Tennessee Oncology at Summitt

Dr. Brad Cohen (Radiation Oncologist):  Summitt

Christopher and I have spent many, many hours at doctor visits over the past two weeks.  Meeting with each of these individuals, asking questions and gathering information.  We feel confident in each of them and believe they will provide me with the best possible medical care.  More about them later.
