Ms. Bennett provides vital support for the program and cares for patients with gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (GEP-NETs) and pheochromocytomas and paragangliomas (PCC/PGL).

She also assists with the planning and organization of Penn’s annual neuroendocrine patient care conference, NET world awareness day recognition, and has served in past years on the allied health program planning committee for NANETS, the North American Neuroendocrine Tumor Society. She has collaborated on several NET research projects and was the recipient of the Distinguished Partners in Hope Award, University of Pennsylvania, March 2019 and Tapestry Award, Healing NETs Foundation, April 2019.
