.@ECAware has made it easy for patients to find support online with private (and some public) Facebook communities. These communities are a place for patients to connect with others who can uniquely understand what they’re going through.

According to EC Aware, 1 in 5 Americans has at least one risk factor for esophageal cancer. It may not show early symptoms, so knowing the risks factors, such as chronic #GERD, Barrett’s esophagus, smoking, and obesity, matters.

Every 40 minutes, someone in the U.S. is diagnosed with esophageal cancer & it remains the 7th leading cause of cancer death among U.S. men.
Know the potential symptoms which may include: difficulty swallowing, persistent heartburn, chest discomfort, or unexplained weight loss. If you have questions or concerns, talk to a healthcare provider.

Regionalization of esophageal cancer has proven to be so beneficial for patient outcomes @STS_CTsurgery @AATSHQ @annalsthorsurg @AnnSurgOncol @AATSED @ECAware
In this heartwarming story, East Bay Thoracic Surgeon Jeff Velotta, MD, discusses minimally invasive esophageal cancer surgery. Just 3 months after surgery, his patient went on an 11-mile hike in the eastern Sierra!
