THE PROBLEM

The oncology landscape is changing.

It's an exciting time in oncology with the proliferation of treatment options. The oncology treatment market is projected to grow at an 11.3% CAGR over the next decade largely fueled by the explosion of biomarker testing and targeted treatments. This brings some challenges as well.

Patients have unprecedented access to information...

A January 2024 study of YouTube users reported that 87.6% of respondents watch health related content (HRC) on YouTube, and 84.7% make decisions based on what they watch. Many individuals attempt to self-educate about health-related topics, with over 70% of individuals using Google to search for health information. The majority of the population now turns to Google for health-related searches, with 70,000 health-related queries per minute. And AI resources such as ChatGPT have only compounded the access to information.

But less time with their doctors.

Cancer incidence is projected to grow 49% from 2015 to 2050 in the US, fueled by growth in the aging population (Source CDC). At the same time, oncology physician workforce participation is declining. Recent ASCO report shows that the oncology workforce is retiring at a faster rate than the pipeline can maintain. With 22% of oncologist nearing retirement age, we have an impending capacity crisis in oncology care. (Source: ASCO, JAMA report).

Testimonials

Scientifically designed by experts & backed by patient lived experience

“I would definitely recommend this. I'd tell our other nurse navigators, our social workers, our triage team, and then any ancillary staff that is in communication with patients. We have a lot of phone calls each day and not all of them are urgent. It will hopefully keep people from spiraling out of control on Google.”

— Nurse Navigator, Community Oncology Center

“Since the [doctor] appointments are so short, maybe you only have a half hour with the doctor every three months, this really helps you prepare for every appointment and anything else that's going on in your life. I recommend everybody should have one.”

— Lung Cancer patient

“I love that this podcast has both science based educational content as well as patient stories. I share this podcast with anyone I know who has been diagnosed with cancer or cares for someone with cancer.”
