She is experienced in interpreting diagnostic data, monitoring chemotherapy patients, and coordinating multidisciplinary care. Now practicing under the supervision of Stephanie Akbari, MD, FACS, Breast Surgeon, Alix provides care for post-surgical patients, medical oncology patients, and individuals with benign or high-risk breast conditions.
