Stomach cancer treatment is rarely a solo journey; it works best with a multidisciplinary approach. When surgery is an option, it is typically integrated with chemotherapy and sometimes radiotherapy to shrink tumors and target remaining cancer cells. This multimodal strategy is essential in providing patients with the best possible chance of a cure. We are honored to introduce one of the global leaders in this field speaking at our upcoming conference: Dr. Paulo Kassab. Dr. Kassab is a Professor of Surgery and the head of the Gastroesophageal and Bariatric Surgery Division at Santa Casa Medical School in Brazil. As a specialist in stomach and esophageal conditions, he is deeply committed to delivering advanced, personalized treatments. Dr. Kassab and his team emphasize personalized care, ensuring that treatment plans are tailored to: 💜 The specific characteristics of the tumor 💜 The patient’s overall health 💜 Available resources and support systems His goal remains steadfast: to maximize the chance of a cure and minimize side effects, all while maintaining the highest possible quality of life for his patients. Join Us in Toronto or Virtually Don't miss the opportunity to hear from Dr. Kassab and a full day of expert speakers dedicated to stomach cancer advocacy, treatment, and support. 📅 Date: April 25th, 2026 📍 Location: Toronto, ON & Virtual Livestream In person space is limited - register today to reserve your spot! mygutfeeling.ca/2026-stomach… #StomachCancerConference #MyGutFeeling #StomachCancerAwareness #StomachCancer #StomachCancerEducation
