A Day in the Life of a Medical Oncologist

Dela

Most people think oncology is about chemotherapy.

In reality, it’s also about uncertainty, teamwork, difficult conversations, and helping people navigate some of the hardest moments of their lives.

In this episode, Kate talks to her husband David, a medical oncologist with more than 20 years of experience, about what the job actually looks like behind the scenes.

They discuss multidisciplinary team meetings, treatment decisions, palliative care, the emotional weight of the work, and why cancer care is never the work of a single doctor.

It’s an honest and deeply human conversation about modern medicine, good colleagues, and the privilege of caring for people when they need it most.
