  • How does an oncologist treat breast cancer? With Dr Eleonora Teplinsky

    How does an oncologist treat breast cancer? With Dr Eleonora Teplinsky
    Dec 4 2024

    Breast cancer can be really scary, especially when your oncologist rattles off a list of treatments and side effects. I can’t think of anyone better to help me explain what they are and why you have them than Dr Eleonora Teplinsky. She’s the Head of Breast and Gynecologic Medical Oncology at Valley Health System and Clinical Assistant Professor of Medicine at Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai. She dedicates her free time to creating videos on YouTube and Instagram to explain breast cancer treatment and I’m a huge fan.

    In this episode we get quite technical about treatments, so if you’re very newly diagnosed you might first want to listen to my interview with Rachel Clifton about chemotherapy from Season 2 which you can find HERE

Great content and wonderful presenter

I love this series. Such useful information and I always learn something to and from school drop-off. The guests can also be so inspiring and really lift my spirits. Liz is an excellent presenter and I look forward to each new episode.
