In this episode, Dr. Audrey Nath speaks with Dr. Evan Noch, a neuro-oncologist and assistant professor of neurology at Weill Cornell Medicine and NewYork-Presbyterian. Dr. Noch shares his unique perspective as a physician who sees patients and researches treatments for brain tumors as someone who was also diagnosed with his own brain tumor, called an acoustic neuroma. Dr. Noch discusses his hearing loss that alerted him to see a doctor and then talks about his experience of surgery and recovery.
