Cancer Doctors – Dr. Joel Granick

This video features Dr. Joel Granick, medical oncologist at Cancer Treatment Centers of America (CTCA) at Midwestern Regional Medical Center. Dr. Granick discusses the importance of empowering patients and giving them options for their care:

"At CTCA, we have the attitude that the patient is at the helm of the ship, and we are sort of navigators. We try to give them instructions to be able to help them go through a tight passage.

We get a lot of patients here who have been given prognoses based on what the journals say life expectancy is. But, we have to remember that patients are not statistics in a journal. They are individuals…The prognosis is not based on what is in a journal; it’s based on the treatment that they receive and the will-power they have to try to fight the disease."

Real Patients. Real Stories. Real Hope.

Do these videos feature real cancer patients?

Yes, the videos in this section feature real CTCA survivors with real stories to tell. These are not actors. They are cancer patients who came to CTCA and emerged as survivors. These stories are not scripted. They are personal accounts of people who found hope, and a voice, at CTCA. This is what they have to say, in their own words...

Why are some, not all, cancer types listed?

At CTCA, we treat individuals with a variety of cancer types. However, all of our survivors are not on film. If you don't see a survivor with the cancer type you're looking for, it only means we do not have a video at this time.

Keep in mind, we are continuously adding videos to this section. If you don't see the one you're looking for today, visit us again, or let us know how we can improve.
