AdventHealth Hendersonville Hosts FREE Event: Lung Cancer Care and Prevention with Dr. Kulick

N.C., October 29, 2019 — Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer death among both men and women in the United States. Each year, more people die of lung cancer than of colon, breast and prostate cancers combined. AdventHealth Hendersonville wants to help change those statistics by empowering people through its FREE education series. By making yourself aware of risk factors, you could prevent lung cancer in yourself and your loved ones.

On November 13, AdventHealth invites the community to its Lung Cancer Care and Prevention event. Board-certified Thoracic Surgeon, David M. Kulick, MD, PhD, FACS, FCCP will share about innovation in lung cancer care and prevention during this FREE session.
