from Taking Charge of My Cancer · host Derly Munoz
Anamaria Yeung, MD is a Florida native and completed all of her education in Florida. She went to Florida State University for undergraduate studies and received her MD degree at the University of Florida in 2004. She then completed residency in Radiation Oncology at the University of Florida in 2009. She stayed on at UF and joined the faculty in 2009, where she ascended the ranks to become a full Professor of Radiation Oncology, specializing in thoracic and gynecologic cancers. She holds board certification in both Radiation Oncologyand Lifestyle Medicine.During her 15 year career in academic radiation oncology, Dr. Yeung loved being able to walk with patients through the journey of a cancer diagnosis and treatment. It was an honor for her to be a part of this difficult time in her patients’ lives. But after several years of seeing an increasing number of younger and younger cancer patients, she came to the realization that she wanted to start helping patients to prevent cancer rather than treat cancer once it had already taken hold. Over time, she discovered a tremendous amount of scientific data concluding that a large proportion of cancers could beprevented just with lifestyle changes such as eating a whole foods plant-based diet, regular exercise, improving sleep, and reducing chronic stress. This started her on the path toward a career change to Lifestyle Medicine.In 2024 Dr. Yeung, along with her three amazing partners,founded Empower Lifestyle Medicine. Their mission is to empower people to prevent, treat and reverse some of the chronic diseases that plague so many of us today, including obesity, diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and several types of cancers, through lifestyle changes.Connect with Derly https://cancermindandbodyrehab.comhttps://Cancerrehabsolutions.com Social Media Instagram.com/cancermindandbodyrehabFacebook.com/cancermindandbodyrehabFacebook.com/Cancerrehabsolutionshttps://www.youtube.com/@cancerrehabsolutionshttps://twitter.com/@Derlycanc72466Connect with Dr Yeung5208 SW 91st Dr Suite EGainesville,FL 32608Empower Lifestyle Medicine [email protected]352-200-2465Www.empowerlifestylemedicine.com Social media Insta:@empowerlifestylemedFB:Empower Lifestyle Medicine
