My guests have been at the forefront of efforts to improve breast implant safety. I hope you will join my conversation with Diana Zuckerman, President of the National Center for Health Research, and Raylene Hollrah, who was diagnosed with a rare lymphoma caused by the textured implants used in her reconstruction after breast cancer treatment. Learn more about the emerging information related to the risks of breast implants. And find out what you can do to hold the FDA accountable for ensuring that medical devices are safe and effective.
You can find our latest episode on our website or on Apple Podcasts, Google, Stitcher, or wherever you get your podcasts. Be sure to leave a review telling us what you think! ([link removed] )
Because together we can do something besides worry.
