I love shopping. I collect handbags, jewelry, shoes, and luxury items, and I love high-end designers. It’s what you buy when you celebrate milestones. I have a YouTube channel—Dawn Loves Couture—and I use it to post unboxings and reviews of the items I buy. It’s like shopping with friends. But I had to put that all on hold when I was diagnosed with cancer.

In 2013, Alison Kovalchik learned she carried the BRCA1 mutation that increases the risk for developing breast cancer. Because she already had a number of other health issues, she was very worried about her options for preventive treatment. Upon the recommendation of her doctor, Alison sought answers from a specialist at Fox Chase Cancer Center, where she later had preventive surgery. She was assigned to a team of physicians from several different departments who all worked together to form an individualized treatment plan to ensure the best outcome. "Even though Fox Chase is a cancer center, its staff considers the patient as a whole person, which is something I hadn’t encountered elsewhere, and, to me, it is a true miracle," Alison said. "Fox Chase Cancer Center’s doctors worked as a team to treat me...I trust my team at Fox Chase. My doctors gave me my life back—in all ways, not only with the BRCA mutation risk. I know I’m in the best hands for my care."

Her gastroenterologist performed a PET scan which revealed a rare kind of cancer, a mucosal melanoma. “At that point, my urologist admitted 'this is beyond me. You need to go somewhere else',” she recalled.

"On October 29, 2012, I thought I had a bad case of the flu. I had slight pains on the right side and was really tired. I decided to go to the local hospital for a checkup and that’s when everything in my world started to change. I ended up with emergency surgery that day for an appendectomy. Afterwards my surgeon, Dr. Carlos Villarreal, and my best friend, Dr. Richard Bindie, told me that if I had waited a couple more hours I would have been dead. Dr.

The best facility, doctor-(Stephanie King), doc's assistant, [...], and receptionist-(name unknown). I have been a patient of Dr. King since 2013. It took some hoop jumping to find someone who would actually help me with my medical condition. I will forever be grateful to FCCC & Dr. King.

[...] Dr. King is just wonderful. She performed my mother's hysterectomy in the 90s, and she saw me immediately when my issue was misdiagnosed by another doctor in 2015. She performed my surgery and made me feel ok throughout the whole process. I appreciate that she speaks frankly and with compassion and explains everything very clearly. After I had my surgery, she even called me outside of normal office hours to see how I was doing. I trust her advice and expertise. [...] is also wonderful. She's caring and professional. I'm never afraid or apprehensive about coming in for an appointment because I know I'm in capable hands.
