About Dr. Lindsay Keith Breast Surgeon

My path to becoming a Breast Surgeon has not been straightforward, but I am positive that I am doing what I have been called by God to do. Cancer is a scary word and it has a way of humbling you. I realized my love for cancer patients very early on in surgical residency. Through training, I was exposed to many cancer patients with various types of cancer. Unfortunately, not all cancers are curable when found, especially in later stages. However, I was witness to the incredible fight inside cancer patients, and their willingness to listen, understand and battle their diagnosis, either to cure or death was awe-inspiring.

So, I decided during that first year of residency that I wanted to be a cancer surgeon. Throughout training, I began to feel myself drawn to the disease process of breast cancer and breast diseases in general. I enjoyed watching my mentors educate and empower patients concerning their breast cancer diagnosis and guide them through treatment. It is strange to say, but I “fell in love” with breast cancer, to the point that I hate it and desire to help women (and men) get rid of it forever! I know that God has called me to treat breast diseases and cancer and I am eager and excited to help you through your journey.
