One of the amazing things about our cancer care team (and patients!) at Lakewood is their resounding commitment to increase awareness and access for rural cancer patients throughout the region. Lakewood oncologist Dr. Wade Swenson and Sandra Thompson, Lakewood Oncology patient participated in this incredible event to improve the experience and outcomes for rural cancer patients in central Minnesota!

🌟 It was an honor to speak at the Relay for Life for Best of MNWest in Alexandria! The event was the largest fundraiser to date in Minnesota and the 19th largest in the country. The expanded relay, now including Douglas, Pope, Stevens, Swift, Traverse, Big Stone, Todd, Western Stearns, and Morrison Counties, shows the power of our communities coming together to fight cancer. Thank you to everyone who participated and supported this important cause! Together, we are making a difference. 💪 #RelayForLife #CancerAwareness #GreaterMN #CommunityStrong
