New year, new chances to catch cancer early. 🙌

Low-dose CT can find lung cancer before symptoms start, when treatment is simpler and outcomes are better. If you’re 50–80 with a significant smoking history or quit within 15 years, screening may be right for you. It could be the most important appointment you make this year.

If you already have a cancer diagnosis, call our clinic to schedule an appointment or second opinion today. 📞

In 2025, I completed one of my biggest goals: Starting a practice in Monroe, Louisiana. People ask me, "Why did you choose Monroe to start your practice?" 🤔 Let me tell you.

Better access to treatment, more education, and survivors’ stories that start right here at home.

It is the end of the year. I am thinking less about the outcomes, and more about the moments.

The split second before I knock on the door.
The shift in the room when I stop standing and sit down.

The sound of a family member finally exhaling the breath they have been holding.

We chase scans and labs. But cancer is not just biology. It changes time. It changes priorities. It changes people.

This year reminded me of a simple truth. My patients will forget the name of the drug I prescribed. They will forget the exact protocol.

But they will remember how the room felt.
They will remember if I looked them in the eye.
They will remember if I stayed present when the silence was heavy, or if I just executed orders and left.

To the patients who trusted me with their fear: Thank you.
To the families who let me walk this path with them, even for a short while: Thank you.
To the colleagues who show up every day to do the work no one sees: Thank you.

Medicine moves fast. But the core is still the same.

Show up. Pay attention. Treat the human, not just the disease.

Next year, I will keep knocking. I will keep entering the room.

Happy new year!

Here are three things 2025 taught me as an oncologist. This year reminded me why I chose this work in the first place. ❤️‍🩹

Comment one lesson 2025 taught you! ⬇️

As an oncologist, the number one question I got this year from my patients: "How do you know if my treatment is working?" 💬

We look at three things together:
✅ How you feel
✅ What we see on scans
✅ What we see in your labs

Give us a call to schedule your appointment today if you have a cancer diagnosis.
