Description
On this episode of the Dr. Tyna Show, I have the honor of sitting down with Dr. Jenn Simmons. I found her through instagram while she was sharing unpopular views of mammograms that I also agree with. She is a former breast surgeon, a functional medicine doctor, podcast host, and author of the book A Smart Person’s Guide to Breast Cancer. We had an absolutely fascinating talk.
