Being Dense in Ireland

I am honored to be a part of an advocacy program for Breast Density Awareness in Ireland.  Beingdense.com was started by Siobhan Freeney, a breast cancer survivor since 2015.  She is following in the footsteps of Dr. Nancy Cappello in promoting awareness of breast density in Ireland.  Have a look at her website and blog page.  

"Being Dense is incredibly excited to introduce you to the newest member of our team, Radiology Expert, Dr Julie Gershon. Dr Julie worked with Nancy Cappello on the Areyoudense.org US advocacy and we are honored that she has agreed to support Beingdense.com by agreeing to be our Medical Advisor.  Julie S. Gershon, M.D. is a board certified breast radiologist in Avon, Connecticut. She has been in private practice for 21 years and specializes in Women’s Imaging, specifically mammography and breast ultrasound. Dr. Gershon began her own private practice for women in November 2013, and offers specialized and personalized imaging to her patients. She is an active member of the American College of Radiology and the Society of Breast Imaging, and serves as a medical advisor for AreYouDense.org. Dr. Gershon is a strong advocate of screening breast ultrasound in dense breast patients and was presented with the “Champion” award from Are You Dense? in June 2016. Dr. Gershon resides in West Hartford, Connecticut with her husband and three children. We look forward to having Dr Julie on our team."
