Re: Man Denied Free Breast Cancer Screening Highlights Plight Of At Risk Men
Boy, this gets me steamed--It seems this clinic was initially interested more in following protocols than getting this man help. Surely by now they know men get breast cancer too. None the less, it now appears the patient will be getting some help but it looks like it took the scrutiny of the press to make it happen.
