August 2025 BRA Banter - Cardiac Health After Chemo
BRA Groups
Watch the full recap now!
Join us for an empowering and informative BRA Banter focused on a topic that doesn’t get enough attention: cardiac health after chemotherapy. This survivor-centered conversation will explore how cancer treatment can impact the heart—and what you can do to protect and support your heart health after chemo.
We’re honored to welcome two leading voices in oncology and cardiology:
- Dr. Nishtha Sareen, Cardiologist with Ascension Saint Thomas Heart
- Dr. Sara Nunnery, Director of Breast Cancer Research at Tennessee Oncology
Note from the live session: As promised on the call, here is the list of screenings that Dr. Sareen recommends discussing with either your PCP or Cardiologist.
- Lipid panel: Lipoprotein A, CRP, ESR
- CT angiogram of coronaries
- Echocardiogram/cardiac MRI
Have a breast cancer question you’ve always wanted to ask an expert? This BRA Banter covers a little bit of everything. Dr. Ben Ho Park of Vanderbilt Ingram Cancer Center joins us to answer questions from the BRA community and talk about what’s happening in breast cancer today. From treatment and research to recurrence and life after breast cancer, it’s a conversation full of information survivors can use.
