Description

Did you know that in the US rural communities have lower cancer rates but higher death rates from cancer? Did you know that  only 3% of medical oncologists practice in rural communities?When it comes to cancer, living in a rural area, puts people at a disadvantage.They face limited access to quality healthcare,  long travel times,  low recruitment to clinical trials, all of which affect quality of care and health outcomes. Join our producers Stephanie Walker, Martha Carlson,  and their guests in the deep dive into this important topic.
