Episode description

Host Dr. Aditi Nerurkar sits down with Dr. Thomas VanderMeer, surgical oncologist and interim director of the Upstate Cancer Center at SUNY Upstate Medical University, to trade notes on the real work of caring for the data-informed patient.

They start with a case. A woman with rising ctDNA, no imaging correlate, walking into Tom's office. He thought the conversation would be about the limits of detection. It wasn't. Her question, once he listened for it, was about her children, and whether the same molecular tests could tell her something about their risk. Tom uses the case to make a larger point. The question on the surface is rarely the question the patient actually came in with.

From there, the 2 doctors get into the practice. The teach-back method as a check on real understanding. The discipline of not looking at your watch, even when the schedule says you should. And the throughline Aditi names back to him by the end of the conversation: open-mindedness and humility, held steady against the rigor of the science.

Episode description
Welcome to The Blind Spot. Every misdiagnosis and every missed diagnosis, has a story. This show goes looking for it.

In the premiere episode, host Dr. Aditi Nerurkar sits down with Dr. Nadine Jackson, gastrointestinal medical oncologist at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute and associate professor at Harvard Medical School. Their conversation starts with a simple question. What does it actually feel like to practice oncology right now, when the science is moving faster than the guidelines can capture it?

Dr. Jackson is honest about it. Some days exhilarating. Other days exhausting. Most days both. From there, the 2 doctors move through the systems Dr. Jackson has built to keep up. The 3 questions she asks before every patient encounter. The mentor who told her "know what we know, start there." The argument running underneath it all: staying current isn't a luxury. It's part of the job. And the system has to make room for that work.
