HOW IS THIS ADA WELLNESS AMBASSADOR SAVING LIVES? by Dr. Parul Dua Makkar

Dr. Parul Dua Makkar shares how her life took a different trajectory when she lost her only sibling, Dr. Manu Dua, who was 34 years old, to Oral Cancer last year. He was a Dentist as well. Since his death, she has devoted her time to educating doctors and patients alike about risk factors and prevention and advocating for early diagnosis of Oral cancer. She has also co-authored the book ‘Life Interrupted, Dr. Dua’s Survival Guide’ which is a winner of the CIPA EVVY Award for Motivational/Inspirational books. She is the 2023-2024 ADA Wellness Ambassador for New York (District 2).
