At 49, Jeremy never imagined testicular cancer — but experiencing sharp pain sent him to the doctor, and a Stage 3 diagnosis prompted him to change providers and go to Siteman. He and his wife, Robyn, open up about the grueling treatment journey, the tough side effects, and how WashU Medicine oncologist Dr. John Visconti adapted care to keep Jeremy on track. Dr. Visconti also shares a simple way every man can take charge of his testicular health.
“This is Cancer” is brought to you by Siteman Cancer Center at Barnes-Jewish Hospital and Wash U Medicine, and produced at Spot Content Studio in St. Louis, MO.
