the University of Oklahoma, along with a fellowship in surgical pathology at
UCLA. He has a longstanding interest in breast cancer risk assessment, having
published the first lay text on the subject, The Truth About Breast Cancer Risk
Assessment. This led to his appointment to the Risk Assessment Working Group

paper published in the March 2004 issue of the American Journal of Surgery.

assessment, including histologic and cellular risks as well as BRCA genetic
testing.
