Telemedicine success takes pair into the limelight When Kathy Miller, MD, and LaTrice Haney, RN, agreed to help with the breast cancer treatment of a woman isolated in Antarctica, little did they know how much media attention their actions would generate. Both have studiously tried to avoid interviews concerning the long-distance treatment they oversaw for Jerri Nielsen, MD, who was diagnosed with breast cancer while part of a South Pole expedition team. However, at the request of their patient, both flew to New York City to be interviewed by Diane Sawyer for a segment on ABC Primetime Thursday , which will air Jan. 25. Portions of an interview conducted earlier in January will be seen on NBC's Oprah Winfrey , airing Jan. 26. Sports and entertainment items are available.
Space also is available for faculty and staff members.
