Meet Arlene Karole

New Released: Just Diagnosed, Breast Cancer

Just Diagnosed, Breast Cancer is based on Arlene Karole’s personal experience. Her book is dedicated to helping others become self-aware and empowered by taking charge of a breast cancer diagnosis.

Just Diagnosed, Breast Cancer started with scores of sticky notes as Arlene Karole began navigating the early stages of her diagnosis.

Voluminous research and numerous consultations with doctors and discussions with friends followed, ultimately leading to this book, designed to teach, inspire, and empower. No matter your unique diagnosis, stage of breast cancer, stage of life, or gender (men get breast cancer too!), you have choices regarding your attitude, approach, and health-care decisions.

She is also the director of the Office of Academic Engagement, Education, and Communications in the Department of Cardiology at Northwell Health.
