DESCRIPTION:
Ovarian cancer is often called a “silent disease”—but is it really, or are we just missing the signs? In this episode of Beyond the Paper Gown, Mitzi Krockover, MD sits down with Robin Cohen, RN, Chair of the World Ovarian Cancer Coalition and CEO & Co-Founder of the Sandy Rollman Ovarian Cancer Foundation, to unpack what every woman needs to know. From risk factors and prevention to the realities of late-stage diagnosis, global gaps in care, and promising new treatments, this conversation sheds light on a disease that impacts more women than many realize. It’s a powerful discussion on awareness, advocacy, and why speaking up—about symptoms, research, and access—can save lives.
