Pals Living Life: Patient Advocate Lindsay B. Talks Fertility on SurgOncToday Podcast

Hope Renewed: A Young Woman’s Journey after CRS/HIPEC

Pal Lindsay B. talked with three appendix cancer specialists on the Society of Surgical Oncology’s podcast, SurgOncToday. Moderated by PMP Pals Medical Advisory Board member Dr. Melanie Ongchin of the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center (UPMC), Lindsay spoke about fertility issues facing women with peritoneal cancer diagnoses. Thrust into an immediate decision-making scenario, on top of dealing with a cancer diagnosis, women need solid information in real time to decide how to preserve their options for future parenthood. Joining the conversation are Dr. Trang Nguyen from Washington University and Dr. Molly Kledzik from WVU.

Thanks Lindsay for being a patient advocate and Pals ambassador,  and speaking openly about these issues that face women navigating appendix cancer, its related conditions like PMP, and the rare disease journey.
