Cancer Episodes
5.6 - Dr Liz O' Riordan - The Breast Surgeon who got Breast Cancer
‘Assume I know nothing’ - we are joined today by Dr Liz O’Riordan about the impact having the very condition she was trained to treat had on her, both as a patient and a doctor. As well as her experience of cancer, Liz discusses her experiences of sexism, she tells us what actually goes on in the operating room and what really annoys her about pharmacists.
Live at the Cardiff Science Festival! Jamie Brewster and the patient as a battlefield.
In this, our first ever live show we talk to our first ever patient! Jamie Brewster is an architect with the DB3 group and shares with us, and our live audience, his experiences as a cancer patient. It is a heartfelt story peppered with humour and pathos, and one that offers healthcare professionals plenty of food for thought.
