The Big Apple Noids support group invites you to join fellow carcinoid and neuroendocrine tumor (NET) patients and three medical experts for lunch on Sunday, May 4 from 12:30 to 3:30 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 carcinoid heart disease to follow-up testing and new developments.
Following an extremely successful luncheon last year, the maximum number of participants has been expanded to 25 per meeting. While there is no charge for admission, interested individuals must register by email or telephone on a first-come, first-served basis. The luncheon will be moderately priced and will be the only charge for attending.
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. Celia M. Divino, surgeon, Chief of the Division of General Surgery and Professor of Surgery at Mount Sinai; and Dr. Jerome S. Zacks, cardiologist, Assistant Clinical Professor of Medicine at The Mt. Sinai Medical Center and founder of the Carcinoid Heart Center in New York City.
Attendance at the May 4th 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).
