As a researcher, Heather Beckwith, MD, hunts for improved cancer treatments. As an oncologist, she can apply those advanced treatments to help patients and their families.
It is her dual role that Beckwith finds especially fulfilling. Beckwith, who is part of the University of Minnesota Health Breast Center, has served as a M Health physician for nine years and a faculty member at the University of Minnesota Medical School for three years. She specializes in breast cancer treatment and sees patients following a mammography screening.
