Today's expert will no doubt make your life feel so much better. If you're like me, you can go down the proverbial rabbit hole on the internet searching for medical answers, big and small, and often that causes more anxiety.
Dr. Rohan Ramakrishna is an award-winning, board-certified neurosurgeon . He is the Chief of Neurological Surgery at New York-Presbyterian and Brooklyn Methodist, and he is a Professor of Neurological Surgery at Weill Cornell and the Director of the Brain Metastases Program. He is also the Co-director of the Rhodes Center for Glioblastoma.
We talk about life as a brain surgeon, some of the nuance of Glioblastoma, the importance of clinical trials and how they are defined - and why it's so important to look beyond the standard of care. And lastly, Dr. Ramakrishna shares his passion project: a new tool for making health care accessible in a vetted, helpful way online, between appointments. For not only GBM but ALS, dementia, fertility and more Roon is going to change our lives for the better.
