I mean, I think this would be a good time to talk a little bit about that and bring awareness to to folks.
And In the last practice I was at before coming down here to beautiful, sunny southwest Florida, I did a lot of breast reconstruction.
And so I had a really active role in the breast cancer community, doing a lot of that type of surgery, working very intimately with the breast surgeons.
And so I think it always hits a little bit differently for me due to that, you know, just having had touched so many women's lives and being so active in that community.
And so I think it's something that it's very important, like you said, that we talk about, that we've mentioned, you know, and we focus on, especially because I focus so much on the breasts.
So when we think about breast cancer awareness, you know, we think about screening, right? Breast cancer, similar to colon cancer.
There's different types of cancers that if we do good screening, active screening, then we can very often find...
And I think what's really great in the breast cancer space is there's been a lot of research and there's been a lot of growth and improvement in the types of imaging, the types of quality of the imaging that they do.
So for women who are average risk breast cancer, you'll see different guidelines from different you know societies and whatever but I think the general consensus is breast cancer screening should really start at around age 40 that usually includes a mammogram it's usually once a year and you go in and they do this the pancake squish
