Receiving a diagnosis of cancer can be a terrifying moment. So often when the dreaded "C" word - cancer - is uttered, people shut down, break down, or dive in too deep. Emotions surrounding the experience can be overwhelming leading to frustration, confusion, and even apathy. Cancer Unfiltered discussed this unique 'moment in time' with our very own Dr. David Willis, a practicing family physician with over 25 years of experience delivering such news and working with patients through this challenging time. The podcast offers reassurance and practice advice on managing such discussions with a healthcare provider - whether it is you receiving the diagnosis of a cancer, or someone you care about.
