Meet Our Patients
Breast cancer survivors from our Jack and Mayora Rosenberg Women's Health Center shared their stories to offer support and provide encouragement to others who are facing an uncertain breast health diagnosis or cancer battle.
“Our Faces of Awareness campaign brings to light the energy of all of our courageous women who have confronted the unknown with strength and grace,” said Sue O’Leary, Swedish Hospital mammogram technologist. “It is by their example that awareness is applauded and women are
living
every day with breast cancer; not just surviving.”
We hope that these testimonials will inspire individuals battling disease, as well as encourage community members to focus on prevention and early detection of illnesses such as breast cancer.
Choose from the patients below to read their stories in their own words.

“Thank you to every woman who shared their beautiful story. We are awed by your strength and your ability to articulately let other women know they are not alone. You have inspired us all.” - Linda Rowan, RN, Breast Health Navigator
