Many of you know Liz O'Riordan. At the age of just 40 she was forced to give up her breast cancer surgical practice due to the complications of two rounds of cancer treatments that left her unable to continue with the rigors of her job. The irony is that it was a breast cancer diagnosis that led to her medical retirement. Liz's impact on the cancer world has been significant. Her position as a surgeon gave her instant credibility. And her experiences as a patient transcended the usual medical dialogue. Liz's journey led her to a Ted talk, speaking engagements and now a book, Under The Knife.
