What is functional oncology
View more
An oncology that sees and treats the tumor in isolation is not relevant.
People have a life that goes on during treatment, they have a history and a future.
Cancer treatment should preserve all these functions of the individual as much as possible.
The focus should be on the patient's life.
not everything is predictable
Having a cancer diagnosis is not desirable. Just as it is impossible to control every situation. But being part of so many people's lives, the treatment strategy is fundamental.
Through a lot of study, a lot of experience and
with a life involving culture, family and values, my work as an oncologist encompasses much more than understanding cancer. Touching a human being in such a delicate phase is a privilege and also an immense responsibility.
My mission is to make the patient's life simpler.
I try to pass on to my students, in addition to the concepts of oncology, medical posture, empathy and always encouraging critical thinking.
