Richard Barth
As one of our amazing surgeons at Dartmouth Cancer Canter, Dr. Richard Barth has dedicated his life to helping patients win their battles with cancer and advancing cancer research. His Prouty is also personal. Both his father and father-in-law were provided with expert care at Dartmouth when they fought cancer.
Jen Durgin
In 2021, Jennifer Durgin had a seizure while she was taking a shower. She woke up in the ER and quickly learned that she had a cancerous tumor in her brain. Her surgeon at Dartmouth removed as much as he could without impacting her language or emotional centers, but there was still some left. Thankfully, due to the expert care she received, it could be 20 years or more before she needs treatment again.
Jothy Rosenberg
Jothy Rosenberg was 16 when a diagnosis of osteocarcoma led to amputation of his right leg. Three years later, when the cancer came back, he was told his chance of survival was zero. He spent the last 48 years proving them wrong.
Vicky Fish
In 2013, Vicky Fish saw the devastation cancer can bring to a family when her brother-in-law Rachid died of stomach cancer. And just last year, she felt the pain losing her dear friend Celia to ovarian cancer.
Hale Irwin
Hale Irwin has been a part of the Prouty community ever since his mom was diagnosed with cancer and treated at Dartmouth almost 40 years ago. Since then, he’s ridden for her and for many others he’s loved and lost to cancer, including his former wife Sharon and his friend Mark, who passed this year. To this day, his bike is covered with the names of those he and his donors are honoring.
Carolyn Szoc
In 2016, Carolyn Szoc’s husband was diagnosed with multiple myeloma. For the next seven years, he received expert care at Dartmouth that enabled him to live life to the fullest while he battled his cancer. For Carolyn and her family, those seven years meant her husband was there to give his daughter away at her wedding and to meet his only grandchild. He passed away last October.
