On this episode, Dr Sarah Chu and early-onset bowel cancer survivor Vanessa Mendico discuss the importance of age not being a barrier to a bowel cancer diagnosis.
To address perceived age bias as outlined in recent research, Bowel Cancer Australia has launched a new resource, the Never2Young CPD series.
Featuring virtual clinics, these educational modules are aimed at helping GP’s identify bowel cancer red flag signs and symptoms in younger patients and assist with the diagnosis and referral pathway.
Dr Sarah Chu talks about the importance of GP’s having a good relationship and listening to their patients and knowing them when they are well.
“As GP’s we care about people. We want to make a difference. We want a patient’s health span to match their life span with the best quality of life.”
