ℹ️ About This Episode

In the very first episode of The Cancer Doctor Podcast, our host Robert Carrillo interviews Dr. Stegall, an integrative oncologist from Atlanta. Dr. Stegall shares his personal background, which includes being born premature and overcoming health challenges in his own life. He recalls being inspired by his grandmother's courageous fight with stomach cancer, which ultimately led him to pursue a career in medicine. This exclusive podcast interview covers topics such as the importance of a patient-centered approach to healthcare, the benefits of combining conventional and alternative treatments, and the need for greater empathy and humanity in medicine. This episode is sponsored by the Center for Advanced Medicine, located just outside of Atlanta, Georgia.
