The Pink Ribbon Girls
This organization is local to Ohio and very dear to my heart . Since 2015, I’ve had the pleasure of being involved with PRG as a community resource for mastectomy tattooing. Not only do they help assist women with breast and gynecological cancers with community referrals but they also provide direct support with transportation to treatment visits, housekeeping, meals, peer encouragement, and more. The support they provide is amazing and absolutely critical to the positive outcomes for so many women Im so grateful to be affiliated with such an outstanding group of people!

Deepa Halaharvi Breast Cancer Surgeon And Survivor

COLUMBUS, Ohio Statistics show one in eight women will get diagnosed with breast cancer during her life and as a local breast cancer surgeon, Deepa Halaharvi never dreamed she would become a part of that statistic.
Now a survivor, Halaharvi aims to inspire her patients through her story of perseverance.
My plan was to become a doctor since I was 5 years old, so I always wanted to be a doctor, said Halaharvi.
It was a journey that started when her family immigrated to the United States from India when she was just 16 years old.
As immigrants, you know theres always, my dad always pushed us to work hard, be great at whatever you do, be honest and youll be successful in life as long as youre the best at whatever you do, she said.
Just as she was getting ready to apply to medical school, her father suffered a stroke, so she put her plans on hold to take care of him.
So, that taught me about life I think, thats when it all started, she said.
She eventually went to medical school in Kansas City before moving with her husband and two children to Columbus in 2008. During her general surgery residency at OhioHealth, she met a young lady in her 30s who was diagnosed with stage 4 breast cancer.
Halaharvi became a breast surgeon in 2014 and around the same time, her father passed away.
