The NRG Oncology Podcast

Show Notes

Our Co-Hosts interview George Blasing of the popular "Dinosaur George" podcast. If you have listened to our prior episodes, George's podcast was the inspiration for the NRG Oncology Podcast in his ability to break down very complex topics to a generalized audience. In this episode, George discusses how he tackles simplifying complex topics and how it can translate into the medical field. Additionally, he discusses his own experiences as a kidney cancer survivor and his good and bad experiences with his oncologists during his treatment.
