EP 611: Complex Cancer? Don't Rush To the OR! Dr. Fleming of UT Dell Medical School Explains the Benefits of Pre-Op Prehabilitation Therapy

In this segment, Dr. Mistry and Donna Lee are joined by surgical oncologist and UT Dell Medical School Associate Professor Dr. Declan Fleming. The strengths of academic-level healthcare include interdisciplinary collaboration across medical specialties and proximity to experimental and cutting-edge developments in oncology medicine. Together, these factors make medical schools the perfect arenas in which to fight complex cancer cases. Another weapon in Dr. Fleming's arsenal is prehabilitation therapy, or the practice of preparing patients for major surgeries by increasing their overall wellness. Listen in to learn why postponing surgery and allowing patients to complete a course of prehabilitation dramatically improves their recovery and ultimate outcomes, even in serious, metastatic cancer cases.
