Welcome to Series 3 of the Spot On podcast.
In Series 1, we focused on the fundamentals of skin cancer, interviewing some of Australia's leading clinicians on the topic. In this season, we're focused more on the human side of a diagnosis.
Series 2 we looked more on the human side of a diagnosis.
In this series, we take a step back and look holistically at a skin cancer diagnosis – providing the answers to the questions many people have about looking after their mental health related to their skin cancer diagnosis.
Dr Maria Ftanou is the Director of Psychosocial Oncology at the Peter MacCallum Cancer Centre in Melbourne. There are many aspects of living well after a diagnosis. In this podcast we focus particularly at how we can manage our anxious thoughts, and cope with uncertainty after being diagnosed with melanoma or skin cancer.
