During the Society of Gynecologic Oncology's Winter 2019 meeting, OncLive, interviewed CU Gynecologic Oncology's Dr. Carolyn Lefkowits who debunked common misconceptions regarding palliative care integration.
The second one we talked about was the myth that palliative care would take away hope… when we do have advanced care planning conversations with our patients, afterward their depression symptoms and anxiety symptoms actually go down.
