Brief Intro

Dr. Rachel Freedman is a medical oncologist and clinical researcher at DFCI in the Breast Oncology Program.

In addition, she is interested in novel therapeutics, serving as the Principal Investigator for several clinical trials. She is also the founder and Director of the Program for Older Adults with Breast Cancer at DFCI. Dr. Freedman joined the faculty at DFCI in 2009.
