What a wonderful day for our NET community in the Mountain West ! 🦓❤️

We were so happy to welcome the SEES (Sleep, Eat, Exercise, Spirit) program from the @HealingNET1 to @huntsmancancer and @UofUHealth. This past Saturday was a day focused on helping our patients not only receive the best cancer treatment, but live well with cancer.

A huge thank you to Dr. Eric Liu and the entire Healing NET Foundation team, especially the amazing Karalyn Miller Faulkner and Stacey Farnum, for bringing SEES to Utah and partnering with us. We are so grateful to Huntsman Cancer Institute for supporting the program, especially Megan Provost, and to our NET Destination Care team (Brennan Loyola, Megan Jones, and Audrey Laney). And a special thank you to all the sponsors whose support made this event possible!

Thank you to our amazing speakers and panelists: Eric Liu, Melissa Zappa, Ernestine Trujillo, Dr. Pamela Hansen, Megan Henderson, Lilah Brophy, Corinne Fellerhoff, and Leslie Hales. It was a privilege to be part of this with all of you.

Most importantly, thank you to our patients and families. You are why we do this.

So proud of what we are building together for the NET community in the Mountain West! 🦓❤️

Great work by @umangtalking and our team at @huntsmancancer!

OPTIMAS is asking an important question in metastatic prostate cancer: can we safely de-intensify therapy for patients with an excellent PSA response and reduce treatment burden and fatigue?
Proud to see this patient-centered trial!
