Let's Talk Cancer

Providing supportive cancer care in Egypt


Listen Later

This new episode of the award-winning Let’s Talk Cancer builds on the recent World Cancer Day campaign theme 'United by Unique' about people-centred cancer care, exploring how comprehensive support can transform the breast cancer journey for women in Egypt and across the region.

Cary Adams speaks with Dr Yomna Sherif, Patient Navigation Manager and breast surgeon at the Baheya Foundation in Egypt, a UICC member organisation dedicated to improving outcomes for women with breast cancer, and winner of the World Cancer Day Campaign award in 2024.

Together, they look at how Baheya puts people-centred care into practice through services such as patient navigation, practical skills support, and help with transport and accommodation – and how patient-led organisations can shape more responsive, compassionate cancer services in their countries and beyond.
