A round-up of all this season's guests' answers to the question: if you could change one thing in terms of breast cancer diagnosis, treatment and beyond, what would it be?

This season we asked all our guests the same question: if you could change one thing in terms of breast cancer diagnosis, treatment and beyond, what would it be?

Their answers ranged from providing better mental health and exercise support, to making sure people from all backgrounds have access to the same treatments and resources. From more awareness of the signs and symptoms of breast cancer, to more funding and research to be put into extending the lives of secondary breast caner patients. From allowing all patients to make informed choices about their own health with reliable information, to being respected and allowed dignity by our doctors when it comes to our own bodies.

Thank you for listening to the Breast Cancer Now Podcast and stay tuned for season 6, coming soon.
