Joined by guest host, Dr. Elaine Schattner, cancer survivor, former oncologist, and author of “From Whispers To Shouts: The Way We Talk About Cancer”, Adam and Elaine discuss how Hollywood distorts patients’ fears surrounding their diagnoses, the profound influence of advocacy groups for early cancer treatments, and the potential for AI in aiding doctors as they navigate potential treatment avenues.
First, Adam and Elaine dive into the distortion of patients’ fears surrounding cancer diagnoses created by Hollywood portrayals in movies such as 50/50 and The Fault In Our Stars, exploring the crucial impact movies and TV shows have on the perception of medical diagnoses, treatments, and mortality.
Then, they touch upon the increasing use of AI in everyday medical practice, its potential in aiding doctors in navigating treatment options, contrasted to the enduring significance of doctor-patient relationships in delivering compassionate care and fostering successful treatment journeys.
Tune in now and enjoy the type of conversations you wish you had around the workplace water cooler!
