About me:
Dr. Kathleen T. Ruddy, a breast cancer surgeon, created the Breast Health & Healing Foundation in 2008.
Dr. Ruddy's journey in the fight against breast cancer began in 1973 when her mother was diagnosed with the disease. Dr. Ruddy's career in medicine has continued over the past thirty-five years in an unrelenting quest to understand the nature of this disease.
Dr. Ruddy has helped cure hundreds of women with breast cancer, and she has treated thousands of women on the Breast Service at Clara Maass Medical Center and in her private practice, but she understands that this is not enough.
In her own words, "We must find the causes of breast cancer, and we must use this knowledge to prevent the disease."
Unlike other foundations that are primarily focused on finding cures for breast cancer, the Breast Health & Healing Foundation seeks to discover its causes. In a world where over a million women are diagnosed with breast cancer every year it only makes sense to finally answer the question, “Why are all of these women getting breast cancer?”
Once we can answer this question we will be able to understand how we can prevent the disease. We can then spare millions of women and their daughters from having to spend the remainder of their lives working for a cure.
While we continue to care diligently for those women who have breast cancer, and while we continue to work hard to find cures for them, the Breast Health & Healing Foundation adds a new perspective and a fresh approach.
It's about time…to discover the causes of breast cancer.
