It's a Beautiful Day!

Friday 22 April 2016

With this event the Beautiful ABC Foundation wants to highlight the importance and the activities of Belgian breast clinics in general.

For the very first time, we will explore this new concept only in Gent, Belgium. We are planning to expand this concept over the next years to our partner breast clinics and countries. The breast cilinic of the University Hospital Gent, together with the Beautiful ABC Foundation will organize this event in Gent in april 2016.

The format is easy and flexible. (Ex-)breast cancer patients can choose to participate in different informative sessions of one hour. Each session represents an important treatment or activity that is covered by breast clinics. Every module is moderated/presented by a physician or health care provider specialized in her/his field. Following anyone's preference or interest, different sessions can be chosen.
