mdtalk | Breast Cancer Awareness Month with Sheila Mikhail - Episode 16
To mark Breast Cancer Awareness Month, we are joined in this moving and potentially life-saving mdtalk by Sheila Mikhail, Executive Director of Columbus Children's Foundation and Co-Founder and Advisor at Ask Bio.
Sheila is a Lawyer, Business Leader, and Philanthropist. She received her Doctor of Law in Business Commerce from Northwestern University Pritzker School of Law in 1997. She has been featured in the Medicine Maker 2023 Power List, and, among many other accolades, was selected as EY Entrepreneur of the Year by Ernest & Young in Nov 2021.
Sheila received a breast cancer diagnosis and after experiencing life-changing health inequality and an extraordinarily difficult journey to diagnosis and appropriate treatment, Sheila focused her efforts on philanthropy and advocacy by founding BC-Ruckus.
BC-Ruckus seeks to increase awareness of breast cancer screening and diagnosis, as well as to campaign for equal access to potentially life-saving screenings that are not currently available to many in the US.
