Delivering truth in oncology

In a field crowded with jargon and change, Dr. Nabhan pushes for honest conversations. Drawing on his background in clinical oncology care, precision medicine, genomics, AI (artificial intelligence,) real-world evidence and policy, he asks the tough questions: Why do we do what we do now? How can we treat cancers better? How do we assure patients are at the center of everything that we do? How do we communicate clearly? How do we care for people, not just diseases?

His mission is to turn complexity into clarity and to bring the patient’s voice back into the center of medicine.

As an immigrant and lifelong learner, he brings humility and curiosity to every role.

His commitment to clarity led to his popular podcast Healthcare Unfiltered, where no topic is off limits and no edits are made.

His desire to teach led to his second book “The Cancer Journey” where he simplified a complex topic to everyone who wants to know about cancer in the simplest possible way.

“Taking care of patients at their most vulnerable time is the biggest honor I have ever received.”
