Head and neck clinic offers post-cancer treatment care
The Moving Ahead Head and Neck Cancer Survivorship Clinic gives specialized support to patients recently completing treatment for head and neck cancer.
Angelea Bruce is a registered dietitian at Sharp Memorial's Laurel Amtower Cancer Institute and Neuro-Oncology Center. She is also board-certified in oncology nutrition. She has a special interest in working with people who have cancer, as nutrition can have a direct impact on a patient's quality of life both during and after treatment.
Angelea believes that most people should try to follow a well-balanced, varied diet based on whole and minimally processed plant food. That being said, she also feels that people should savor a small dessert or treat without guilt or shame.
