In India, nearly 70% of cancer cases are diagnosed late, making treatment more complex and survival rates lower. Stigma, fear, and lack of awareness often delay care, while patients and families face immense psychological stress.

Mental Health During & After Cancer Treatment | Dr. Pooja Khullar Podcast

EPISODE #8 | Dr. Pooja Khullar

This podcast series breaks those barriers by exploring both the medical and emotional sides of cancer. With insights from oncologists, oncopsychologists, psychologists, survivors, and caregivers, we:

  • Raise awareness about early detection and different treatment options — surgery, chemotherapy, radiation, immunotherapy, and emerging therapies.
    Challenge stigma and myths that prevent timely action.
  • Support mental health before, during, and after treatment, addressing anxiety, depression, trauma, and caregiver stress.
  • Build resilience through coping strategies, survivor stories, and expert guidance.
  • By blending medical expertise with psychological support, this series fosters a culture of awareness, empathy, and hope — ensuring cancer care is about dignity and wellbeing, not just survival.

🤝 Are you an oncologist or psychologist passionate about making a difference? We invite you to collaborate with us through our podcast to generate awareness and support cancer patients and caregivers. Please contact us to join this mission.
