Dr. Kathryn Pearson Peyton -030



This week’s success story is about a medical doctor who is specially trained as a breast imaging radiologist.   After years of watching patients receive mistaken breast cancer diagnosis that could have been avoided IF the patient had a full, side by side medical record of her mammograms, Dr. Kathryn Pearson Peyton created Mammosphere:  a cloud-based repository for breast scans. mammosphere.com.  Once a concert violinist, Kathryn thrived in medical school and was determined to do what she could in the fight against breast cancer.  Her great-grandmother, her grandmother, her mother, her aunts have all heard the words “you have breast cancer” and when Kathryn learned that she had an 85% lifetime risk of experiencing the disease herself, she had an elective bilateral mastectomy.  In this compelling interview, Dr. Peyton shares how she felt at the moment she raised her hand to take the Hypocratic Oath, her devotion to her family, and her passion for providing every woman with the tools she needs to take control of her medical records.   #storybehindhersuccess   #16LifeLessons  candyoterry.com
