CAP Foundation See, Test & Treat Anniversary Event
7:00 PM – 9:00 PM
When the late Gene Herbek, MD, FCAP, recognized a significant need for cancer screening in the Standing Rock Native American Community, the first See, Test & Treat event began. With Dr. Herbek’s unwavering support, pathologists provided free breast and cervical cancer screening with same-day results and treatment plans in a respectful, inclusive environment. Since 2011, this life-saving program has expanded to provide more than 100 See, Test & Treat events serving nearly 6,500 women.
Join us for an evening of appetizers and cocktails as we celebrate 10 years connecting communities to this life-saving preventative care.
