A BREAST SURGEON’S MAMMOGRAM WARNING
Comments
Breast Cancer Awareness Month brings the familiar call for women to schedule their mammograms, but breast surgeon and integrative oncologist Dr. Jennifer Simmons is challenging one of the most deeply ingrained tools in women’s health for early detection of cancer.

It seems pretty obvious that healthcare is centered around finding all these microscopic cancers, breast and others, and creating revenues from unnecessary surgeries and procedures. Today’s doctors only push cancer screens and not much else like a proper diet. My friend was diagnosed in 2017 with prostate cancer. He changed his diet, dropped his PSA and told the oncologists off. He is perfectly healthy today.
Greetings from Florida!!!
Please Del, watch the video I gave you in Padua (Motegrotto Terme) when you came to Italy, you’ll discover what’s the real cause of brerast cancer and all the other “diseases”. God bless you!
can you share that video. I’m interested!
I’ve been following Dr. Jenn Simmons for years, and I’m always glad to see her getting a platform to share her perspective. I have a lot of respect for her work, particularly her willingness to question practices that have been accepted for decades without enough discussion of their limitations.
As a functional and integrative medicine clinician, many of her concerns resonate with me, especially regarding overdiagnosis, unnecessary treatment, radiation exposure, and the challenges of detecting breast cancer in women with dense breasts.
Screening is not prevention. We also need to examine the hormonal, metabolic, inflammatory, and environmental factors that influence breast cancer risk.
I recently published an article examining the research on mammography, radiation-free imaging alternatives, and a more comprehensive approach to breast health:

Thank you, Dr. Simmons and The HighWire, for bringing this conversation to a wider audience.
