How will AI transform Radiology for both doctors & patients? I sit down with Dr. Sean Raj, Breast Radiologist & SimonMed’s Chief Medical & Chief Innovation Officer, to learn how AI is transforming how we interpret imaging tests & deliver results. We discuss how AI is making us better, more efficient Radiologists while also transforming the patient experience with easier scheduling & results delivery (he blows my mind with the Instagram style reels each patient receives with their personalized test results). We also discuss whole-body MRI (he's pro btw!).

I learned a lot from the conversation & I know you will too!

YOU ARE MORE THAN A STATISTIC! In this compelling episode, we sit down with Erin Lee Perkins, a triple negative breast cancer thriver and advocate for young breast cancer awareness.

It was an honor speaking with my friend, Elissa Kalver, metastatic breast cancer thriver, CEO of WeGotThis.org, a registry for cancer thrivers & author of her NEW book, We Got This: How I Learned to Thrive with Terminal Cancer.

Elissa opens up about her diagnosis of metastatic breast cancer at age 34 shortly before her daughter's first birthday, & how she's turned her diagnosis into purpose & power. We discuss explaining cancer to your children & why she's redefining what thriving with cancer looks like!

Not only is today book launch day, but it's also Elissa's 38th birthday, & birthdays as a metastatic cancer thriver hit differently. HAPPY BIRTHDAY ELISSA!

You'll laugh, you'll cry, you'll be inspired. We hope you love this episode as much as we do!

Did you know that about 80% of patients undergoing cancer treatment have skin-related side effects? In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Ethan Melillo (@millennialrx), PharmD and Senior Manager of Integrated Health at L’Oréal who works closely with the La Roche-Posay team, to discuss ways that patients can minimize skin side effects before, during, and after cancer treatment. 

For 50 years, La Roche-Posay has been dedicated to helping navigate patients through the challenges of cancer treatment through skin care. We talk about the importance of skin side effects in cancer care. the perfect regimen for cancer thrivers, LRP’s oncology services, & their thermal springs in La Roche-Posay, France. (Yes, it’s a city with thermal springs!)

Listen to this episode before you get breast reconstruction!

It was my honor to speak to my friend, Plastic Surgeon & advocate, Dr. Alicia Billington. We unpack all of the insurance craziness she & her patients have experienced over the last few months, & how social media has played a role. We talk about the problems with the Women’s Health & Cancer Rights Act (WHCRA) & how we can fix this.

We also talk about all the reconstructive options you have after breast cancer, including flat closure, flap, & implants, plus the GalaFLEX internal bra! We even figure out my perfect breast reconstruction as a woman who breast-fed three kids. (Howard, listen up!) 

We hope you love this episode as much as we do! (ps I’m pretty sure we just became breasties! 👯‍♀️)
