Duke Cancer Institute multiple myeloma specialist Cristina Gasparetto, MD, and her patient Thomas Goode, have a candid conversation, in four parts, about the physician-patient journey — from Thomas’ multiple myeloma diagnosis 16 years ago to the present. The journey includes building a strong relationship to support struggles and successes and a path to the future.
This "Mye Journey" series is presented by Duke Cancer Institute and is funded by Multiple Myeloma Research Fund donations.
