as an oncologist I help patients and their families navigate management decisions. We evaluate and calibrate life style and discuss nutrition and whatever is meaningful in this partnership to treat cancer and blood disorders. I will bring to this blog questions, issues I encountered during the day. New medical data and evidence to support patient-centered care will be presented.
This information is solely for educational purposes.

Sleep
Sleep! As the clock changes with the season this is an opportune time to touch on a third of our lifetime. Pages of blog and blah are devoted to this subject. Sleep clinics, the drug industry are heavily invested.
At least half of my patients indicate a sleep issue as a material symptom. Research has shown a link between insomnia, depression and anxiety with measurable biological and chemical changes.
