Breast cancer is the second leading cause of cancer death in women, exceeded only by lung cancer.  Still, health care providers know that early detection is the key to breast cancer survival.  That’s why, as part of its commitment to giving back to the community, Chicago-based Stillman Media & Communications, Inc., has partnered with other community leaders to bring breast cancer education to the public.

“I’m hosting programming on local cable access stations throughout Chicago’s suburbs in order to increase awareness of health care issues and illnesses,” said Robert Stillman, founder and chief executive officer of Stillman Media & Communications, Inc.  “The segment on breast cancer features local clinical experts and is the first in a series of programs that ‘Health Watch’ will cover.” 

Throughout the month of October, the program “Health Watch” was broadcast on the Village of Hazel Crest, Illinois’ local cable station.  Upcoming programs on avoiding sports injuries, winter health safety, prostate cancer, allergy relief, and more are being developed and will be shared with municipalities across Chicago’s south suburbs.


Segments from the program are posted on Stillman’s website, at http://www.StillmanMedia.com.  The website also outlines the full range of services that the firm offers its clients to become better presenters and better communicators.
