Let's Finish Cancer

"A patient's not their illness. A patient is a patient, and they have an experience with an illness, and that's part of their journey, but that's not all of it."
Mary Renouf and Dr. David Jenkins, Radiation Oncologist at Joe Arrington Cancer Research and Treatment Center in Lubbock, Texas, discuss the whole person approach to cancer and what that means for both the doctor and the cancer patient.
