Send us a textSeason 3 Episode 19As we welcome in the New Year, Patrick opens this special episode of Who’s Tom & Dick with a slightly different format. Martin is sadly not with us today as he continues to recover from his recent illness and is currently battling laryngitis. We wish him a speedy recovery and look forward to having him back behind the mic very soon.In Martin’s absence, this episode focuses on something that touches almost every family in some way — cancer. Patrick is joined by one of America’s leading oncologists Dr Usifar for an open, honest, and incredibly informative conversation designed to empower listeners with knowledge, clarity, and reassurance.Together, they discuss the things everyone should know about cancer: early warning signs, changes in the body to look out for, when to seek medical advice, and how modern medicine is advancing detection and treatment. The conversation covers surgery, chemotherapy, treatment pathways, side effects, recovery, and emerging cures, as well as the emotional and physical realities patients and families often face.The episode also tackles a critical and often overlooked topic — cancer-related scams — highlighting what to avoid, how to protect yourself and loved ones, and where to find trusted, evidence-based information.This is a compassionate, practical, and eye-opening discussion aimed at starting the year informed, aware, and prepared. Whether you’re personally affected, supporting someone else, or simply want to understand more, this episode is packed with insight, honesty, and hope.#HeartTransplant#eatingdisorder#RareCondition#HealthJourney#LifeChangingDiagnosis#MentalHealth#Vulnerability#SelfCompassion#PostTraumaticGrowth#MedicalMiracle#BBCSports#Inspiration#Cardiology#Surgery#Podcast#Healthcare#HeartHealth#MedicalBreakthrough#EmotionalJourney#SupportSystem#HealthcareHeroes#PatientStories#CardiologyCare#MedicalJourney#LifeLessons#MentalWellness#HealthAwareness#InspirationalTalk#LivingWithIllness#RareDiseaseAwareness#SharingIsCaring#MedicalSupport#BBCReporter#HeartDisease#PodcastInterview#HealthTalk#Empowerment#Wellbeing#HealthPodcast#prostatecancer#Aid's#prostateCheck out our website at www.whostomanddick.comCheck out our website at www.whostomanddick.com
