For many, a cancer diagnosis is an unthinkable experience. For Dr. Timothy Mullett, a cancer diagnosis was something he’d been preparing for all his life, without even realizing it.
“I think I just have a personality of wanting to try to help others and work through some of the challenges of taking care of folks, and I think that's still part of what drives me today.”
Thanks to that targeted treatment, Dr. Mullett is cancer free today and able to continue his service in helping others achieve the same.
As a doctor and a surgeon in Lexington for the past twenty four years, Dr. Mullett knows more than most about the great struggle in Kentucky that is lung cancer. As a former cancer patient himself, he knows the urgency for solutions to diagnoses. Dr. Mullett is an advocate for greater initiative in the fight against all kinds of cancer, but lung cancer is one he feels particularly passionate about.
