Dr. Sabiha Raoof talked about how Jamaica Hospital and Memorial Sloane Kettering Cancer Center are partnering to provide better access to cancer care in Queens for patients.

She explained why early screening and detection is so important and how a routine check-up that she did for herself helped her discover her cancer.

Dr. Raoof noted how access to cancer care can be difficult for many residents and that she was lucky to know how to get the care she needed.
