Events
The HER Story Patient Ambassador program provides for you an opportunity to hear from a Genentech Oncology Nurse and connect with many others who have been affected by breast cancer. The events last between 60 to 90 minutes and do not require a fee to attend. This program does not replace the advice of your personal healthcare team, but includes questions you may want to ask them about your diagnosis, your treatment plan, or Herceptin.
Remember that every person who has HER2+ breast cancer is unique. The experiences of the women ambassadors in this program may be different from your own. If you have any questions or concerns about your treatment, please talk to your doctor. Click below to find an event near you!
