Grateful for the opportunity to chat with the brilliant @drdonsdizon for this @ASCO article on Pandemic 2.0: Cancer Care, Workplace Stress, and Finding Strength. Give it a read here: bit.ly/37OStkh #ASCOconnection
Cheers to 2022 – and new #EmpoweredByExperts videos!
Riding into 2022 – and straight into filming more #EmpoweredByExperts videos with my good friend and colleague, Dr. @Elizabeth_Comen! (Pic is a throwback - we go way back!)
When it comes to medical information there’s a huge difference between internet sources and reliable sources...
In medicine it takes a lot to launch a new study and publish new data because peer-reviewed evidence is held to a very high standard. I discuss what it takes with Dr. @Elizabeth_Comen on #EmpoweredByExperts.
Big thanks to horses for helping me explain. (Watch and you’ll see.)
There are two main types breast cancer treatments: local and systemic. I sit down with Dr. @Elizabeth_Comen on #EmpoweredByExperts to explain the difference and discuss why oncologists may recommend both.
I had a lot to say about this one!
Immunotherapy is getting a lot of buzz - for good reason! But…it’s it’s not right treatment for every cancer. I discuss this with Dr. @Elizabeth_Comen on our latest episode of #EmpoweredByExperts.
Metastatic disease is when breast cancer has escaped the breast as is living in another part of the body. #EmpoweredByExperts
There’s a lot of confusion about what it means when #breastcancer metastasizes. I break down the facts with Dr. @Elizabeth_Comen on our latest episode of #EmpoweredByExperts.
We're working tirelessly until we're out of a job! #EmpoweredByExperts
As oncologists, myself and Dr. @Elizabeth_Comen are constantly battling misinformation about cancer treatment. There's been incredible progress but there's no cure yet, which is why ongoing research is so important. #EmpoweredByExperts
The immune system is incredibly complex! This one is worth a watch. #empoweredbyexperts
Immuno-what? There’s lots of questions about the immune system, immune boosters and immunotherapy – I tackle this topic with Dr. @elizabeth_comen on our latest episode of #empoweredbyexperts
As oncologists and busy parents trying to squeeze in a workout, this felt particularly relevant.
We all know we SHOULD workout to stay healthy – but how much does it actually take? Watch me and Dr. @Elizabeth_Comen go through the fitness checklist on #EmpoweredByExperts.

Yesterday on @TheView, two mother-daughter pairs who were all diagnosed with #breastcancer around the same time shared their stories. Our Dr. @Elizabeth_Comen joined them to discuss what people should know about breast cancer, genetics, and family history.

A trend that I'm not loving: The amount of alcohol that women drink has increased over the pandemic. So when it comes to drinking, how much is too much? You might be very surprised. Watch #EmpoweredByExperts with Dr. @Neil_Iyengar and I to find out.
When you toast to good health, it’s probably best to have something non-alcoholic in the glass. Watch for the why on #EmpoweredByExperts with Dr. @Elizabeth_Comen. #BreastCancerAwarenessMonth
