The Democratic presidential frontrunner visited the MD Anderson Cancer Center at Cooper to chat with doctors, nurses and administrators about health care in the country and, specifically, the issues faced by the medical professionals at Cooper, according to Thomas Rubino, vice president of communication for Cooper University Health Care.
"It was a short, off-the-record visit," Rubino said Wednesday. "She was just asking questions about what people are seeing and what's going on at Cooper."
