About this episode

No one wants to hear their doctor say "you have cancer." But if that happens, the conversation will affect your life for years to come. On this episode of Health Matters, medical oncologist Pooja Advani, M.D., pulls back the curtain on what those early conversations look like and gives us advice on how to handle such an overwhelming diagnosis.
