Great conversation happening now about rural communities and the challenges we face around healthcare. Cancer care and access to that care is a large part of this. This work is hard, impacts the whole community, and needs to involve cross-sectional work. One thing that I appreciate Dr. Calhoun mentioning, we need to focus on the similarities, to help address these challenges and think of innovative ideas to tackle rural healthcare. #RuralHealthcare #EastTexas #CancerAccess
