I’ve got  a very special announcement for you… the podcast is changing! It’s time to say goodbye to Don’t Ignore the Elephant, and hello to my new podcast - So Now I’ve Got Breast Cancer. I’m going to be focusing on all the issues that people you like face, when you’ve  been diagnosed with breast cancer. You could say I’m an expert in breast cancer. After all, I was a consultant breast surgeon before I had breast cancer three times...

Now it’s time to put all my knowledge to good use in this safe space, where I’ll answer all your questions with some wonderful guests. We’ll put your mind at ease and guide you through the following months and years. And don’t worry - you can still listen to all the old episodes talking about sex, death and body image right here.

So Now I’ve Got Breast Cancer is podcast for anyone who’s been diagnosed with breast cancer.
