EPILOGUE

In the post-war era of global migration to the US, it was common to “Americanize” lengthy or challenging names for easier social connectivity and community integration. By the next generation, the Schwartzbard family name was streamlined for this reason.  The infant in this story whose name is recognized as one of the most honored figures in diagnostic medicine and cancer imaging is Dr. Robert Bard.

Dr. Bard continues to run his active practice in NYC today. He maintains a pre/postop imaging facility for his cancer patients and others suffering from chronic disorders.  Dr. Bard is also the clinical director for Firefighters Against Cancer & Exposures, a national foundation in support of first responders health.  Moreover, as of August, 2024, his office has been confirmed to be the first official diagnostic  center, an early detection screening facility and recurrence detection site for the American Breast Cancer Foundation and the Male Breast Cancer Global Alliance.
