Doctor in the House: Helping More Patients Access Cancer Treatment

Dr George Lee returns to discuss the latest medical news. Expect deep insights delivered with generous humour. It is an exciting time to be working in cancer care. Cutting-edge screening, diagnostic and treatment methods are now available – and these improve the survival and quality of life for many people living with cancer. But there are still barriers that hinder patients from getting full access to the care they need. We discuss how the National Cancer Society Malaysia and Axios International, are working together to provide sustainable access solutions that can help more patients overcome these barriers.
