KOTA KINABALU: Many cancer patients still choose traditional treatment as they cannot afford to go to hospitals, says Tawau Kinabalu Pink Ribbon chairman Christy Salazar.

She said these patients know the importance of getting proper treatment in hospitals, but often decide against going for it due to cost and travel distances.

Salazar said she has come across some serious cases where the patients only sought traditional treatment, but she continues advising them to go to the right avenues. She also reminded women to do regular self check and go for scheduled mammograms for early detection, which could save their lives.
