The Blood Cancer Networking Group and RDC present a special presentation on January 25th: Emotional Impact of Watch & Wait/Fear of Recurrence

Dr. Monique James received her MD through Case Western Reserve University School of Medicine, completed her residencies in Adult Psychiatry at the University of California San Francisco, and went on to do her fellowship at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center/Weill Cornell Medical College.

She specializes in caring for people who are acutely or chronically ill, and who are experiencing psychiatric symptoms related to their illness. Patients can have unique psychiatric needs throughout their illness, from diagnosis to treatment, and with whatever lies ahead. These needs include the re-exacerbation of underlying psychiatric illness, adjusting to cancer diagnosis and treatment, depression, anxiety, symptoms associated with hormone therapy, fatigue, interpersonal conflict, confronting mortality, and other psychosocial distress. Dr. James has a particular interest in women’s health and works in both inpatient and outpatient settings.
