Dr. Janet Abrahm, a distinguished professor of medicine at Harvard Medical School and an expert in palliative care at the Dana Farber Cancer Institute, sits down with Tina and Leah to discuss palliative or supportive care. Palliative does NOT mean "end-of-life" care! This misconception is just one myth dispelled during their conversation. Dr. Abrahm clarifies other misconceptions around palliative care, emphasizing its role from cancer diagnosis through treatment. Did you know that palliative care may help you stay on track when receiving curative treatment? Dr. Abrahm also discusses integrating non-pharmacologic pain management techniques, the psychological aspects of cancer treatment, and the importance of effective communication between oncologists and patients. Join Tina and Leah for this enlightening discussion about palliative care. (Hint: supportive care may be a more accurate descriptor.)
