Manage episode 371627581 series 3362507
Over the past several decades, we’ve seen a tremendous increase in cancer survivorship, meaning more patients are living longer after their cancer diagnosis. However, this increase is not seen equally across all patient groups.

And this doesn’t even begin to cover the extreme differences in insurance coverage, affordable access to care, & inclusion in cancer research trials.

In this podcast episode, we dive deep into the topic of becoming a more inclusive OncoPT with Dr. Patrick Ford, challenging common misconceptions and providing actionable steps for clinicians to take today.
