Eleanor Broaddus, RN - Lexington Clinic

Eleanor brings over 30 years of nursing experience to her role as Breast Care Coordinator. Working as a patient advocate, she is involved in the regularly scheduled Breast Care Conference working with physicians from disciplines that include Mammography, Hematology/Oncology, Radiation Oncology, Pathology, and Surgery. A valuable liaison between physician and patient, she maintains communication as a patient advocate to Lexington Clinic's Center for Breast Care.

During the process of diagnosis and throughout the course of treatment, patients can call Eleanor for information and direction. She will inform and counsel patients and schedule follow-up appointments. “Education is the best way to decrease fear and anxiety in a stressful situation. Patients hear the word ‘cancer’ and panic—a normal response. My responsibility will be to help them through this experience by walking with them step by step.”
