HOUSTON – The latest in breast cancer treatment options and personal stories from two breast cancer survivors take center stage at the Women of Wellness (WOW) Second Annual “Pink Power” Luncheon on Friday, Oct. 13, hosted by St. Joseph Medical Center (SJMC).

Daisha Hayden, M.D., a board-certified radiologist, will present the latest research and importance of mammography screenings. Melissa M.
