I am thrilled to today reconnect with my friend and colleague, Dr. Jenn Simmons, who last joined me on Episode 432. Dr. Jenn is an integrative oncologist, breast surgeon, author, podcast host, and the founder of PerfeQTion Imaging. 

In this episode, we address a range of listener questions, exploring the differences between screenings and diagnostic testing, the use of hormone replacement therapy in breast cancer patients, and more. We also dive into common concerns like fasting, what to do if you find a lump, and the role of targeted supplementation.
