  • Thank you thank you thank you!

    I just got diagnosed with papillary thyroid cancer last week and this was a blow because it was an accidental discovery and hence totally unexpected. I’ve had to many questions since and through your podcast interviews, I am now much calmer and have the necessary information to speak to the specialists in the coming weeks. Please keep up the good work!

  • Informative

    I recently received a diagnosis of stage 1 thyroid cancer and felt really alone, especially since in the UK the only treatment option is thyroid removal. This podcast helped me see there are other options like active surveillance and thermal ablation. Unfortunately, due to the size of my nodule I’m not a candidate for either but it’s good to know there are other options out there.

  • Informative & Solid Thyroid Advice

    Listen to this before accepting surgery as your answer! Excellent podcast with authentic intention behind it from Philip James. As a patient with Hashimoto’s for many years who recently was diagnosed with papillary thyroid carcinoma, I’ve learned so much about RFA as a treatment - and my thyroid specialist never even mentioned this. Thankful for this podcast as a resource. 👏🏼👏🏼

  • Learning to improve my condition- via knowledge

    Thanks for this awesome effort- I have learned a lot. Mainly there are ignorant physicians who are ill educated in this complex body science and yet will not hesitate to tell me that it’s all in my head.

    This podcast is life saving- keep it going, where can I consult you as a gate keeper?
