I am beyond thankful to Dr.Rauh-Hain & Dr. Frey for offering to be the medical advisors for Project Coffee Clutch. Dr. Rauh-Hain is the most caring and compassionate doctor, and I am so fortunate to have him as my oncologist. When we found out my daughter was BRCA2 positive, Dr.Rauh-Hain recommended she see Dr. Frey in NYC. Dr. Frey is brilliant and we love working with her, we are so happy she is overseeing my daughter's care. Together we are all hoping to bring as much awareness as possible to the importance of BRCA genetic testing!

 

Currently Dr. Rauh-Hain and Dr. Frey are working together on the IGNITE-TX project, which focuses on identifying individuals from medically underserved communities at risk for hereditary cancer and increasing their access to genetics services and cancer prevention.
