The Big Apple Noids support group invites you to join fellow carcinoid and neuroendocrine tumor (NET) patients and three medical experts for Lunch with the Experts on Sunday, December 14, 2014 at 12:30 pm in a private dining room at Dorrian’s restaurant in Manhattan (1616 2nd Avenue, corner of 84th Street). This is a unique opportunity to share experiences with others who have similar concerns and to hear from expert physicians in an informal setting on issues ranging from NET cancer treatments and surgery to follow-up testing and new developments.
Following extremely successful luncheons earlier this year and last, the maximum number of participants has been expanded to 25 per meeting. Interested individuals must register by email or telephone on a first-come, first-served basis. There is no charge for the luncheon due to generous sponsorship by Lexicon Pharmaceuticals.
The experts for the luncheon (pictured left to right) will be Dr. Richard R.P. Warner, world-renowned carcinoid/NET specialist, Director of the Center for Carcinoid and Neuroendocrine Tumors at Mount Sinai Hospital in New York City and Medical Director of the Carcinoid Cancer Foundation; Dr. Myron Schwartz, Professor of Surgery at Mount Sinai Hospital and Director of Liver Surgery, and Dr. Max Sung, a medical oncologist and Associate Professor of Medicine, Hematology, and Medical Oncology at Mount Sinai.
Attendance at the December 14th luncheon is limited. Please contact Emily Zuckerberg as soon as possible to make your reservations: ezuckerber@aol.com or 917-689-1980 (no more than 2 people per indication of interest).
