TELUS Talks | Canadians underestimate their skin cancer risk: Kathleen Barnard & Dr. Alison Weppler

For many years, melanoma was considered a death sentence. But in the last decade, huge strides have been made in skin cancer treatments. We sit down with the Save Your Skin Foundation to discuss the role of patient advocacy in improving cancer patients’ lives. Founder Kathleen Barnard is a melanoma patient and awareness advocate, and Dr. Alison Weppler is an oncologist specializing in skin cancers. We discuss the life-changing impacts of immunotherapy, skin cancer prevention and their work raising skin cancer awareness across Canada.
From health and wellness, to community and social responsibility, TELUS Talks with Tamara Taggart shares stories, busts myths, and delivers valuable information to Canadians. This weekly podcast is hosted by veteran broadcaster Tamara Taggart.
