Founders
Drs. Lisa and Paul Baron had a vision for the Charleston community – to develop a breast health facility, where all women would receive expedited and compassionate care when being screened for breast cancer. They envisioned a Center of Excellence that would detect and provide coordinated breast healthcare services all under one roof, designed to be a comforting and inviting patient-centered environment to reduce the anxiety associated with breast cancer detection, while expanding community access to such necessary services.
They shared their vision with a group of local private philanthropists, whose ongoing generous support has made the CBC a reality.
Drs. Lisa and Paul Baron’s vision became reality in 2006 when the Charleston Breast Center (CBC) opened its doors. Dr. Lisa F. Baron is a board certified radiologist who is fellowship trained in mammography, and Dr. Paul L. Baron is a board certified surgeon, who completed a cancer surgery fellowship at Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center. Together they have over 30 years of experience in diagnosing and treating breast cancer. Their dedication and experience provide outstanding leadership to the Charleston Breast Center.
