Bucks County Breast Friends

Bucks County Breast Friends support group was started by Beth B. DuPree, MD, breast surgeon and her patients Stacey Simcik and Anne Clark. Collectively, we brought an amazing group of women together to discuss our feelings and experiences of breast cancer. We laugh, we cry, and most importantly, we share with no judgment in a loving, nurturing, and caring environment at Holy Redeemer Women's HealthCare Southampton and Bucks County Specialty Hospital.

The Bucks County Breast Friends started in 2007 with only a few women. It has now expanded to include over 175 inspirational and beautiful women and a few men. Some who have been recently diagnosed with breast cancer and some who are survivors many years. Our goal is to connect women and men who are going through the journey of breast cancer with other women and men who have had similar diagnosis so a newly diagnosed individual wouldn't have to go through this journey alone....they will have their "BREAST FRIENDS."

New Members are encouraged to come a half-hour prior to our meeting start. (6:30) Meetings are held the first Thursday of the month and alternate between Southampton and Bensalem. Be sure to verify the location of the next meeting.
