Simply Oncology
Welcome to Simply Oncology.
Cancer is daunting for both patients and for clinical teams.
Dr John McGrane and Dr Michael Rowe are oncologists who want to break down the complex parts of cancer care into clear and simple sessions.
We will dive deep into the world of cancer research, patient stories and the latest cancer breakthroughs.
Simply Oncology will have patient focused episodes along with episodes that allow anyone with an interest in oncology to stay up to date.
We hope you join us as we unpick all parts of cancer.

Episode 25: Patient Fundamentals - Understanding non-smoking lung cancer with Dr Tom Newsom-Davis
This episode is hoping to show patients and the public that non-smoking lung cancer is a very real and very different type of lung cancer to smoking lung cancer.
We discuss the great work that charities like Ruth Strauss foundation, Ros Wonders and EGFR UK do to support this patient group.
Pollution may play a part, vaping may play a part.
Dr Tom Newsom-Davis Chair-elect of the British Thoracic Oncology Group shines a light on this area of lung cancer.
