As we celebrate AAPI Heritage Month in May, listen to this heartfelt and enlightening conversation with my guest, Winnie Chung, Director of the ChineseSHARE Breast Cancer Program and former medical language interpreter, who discusses the unique challenges Chinese breast cancer patients face when coming to the United States for treatment and care. From her beginnings as an interpreter for Mandarin and Cantonese speakers to her current role leading the ChineseSHARE Breast Cancer Program in New York City, Winnie reveals how her work bridges patients and providers—improving communication, easing anxiety, and ending isolation.
We explore how culturally aligned peer support groups empower women in every stage of breast cancer, and why representation in the healthcare workforce matters more than ever. This episode is a moving testament to the healing power of community, language, and culturally competent care.
