An interview with Dr. Karen Wonders, Founder and CEO of Maple Tree Cancer Alliance.
But when you look at it as a whole and the impact that it has on the patient, the way that I feel is how can we not offer them exercise when we can visibly see the impact that it has in the life of someone? You can't say that about chemotherapy. You can't say that about a lot of the traditional treatments that are out there that are standard of care. Here's something with no side effects, that chemically, mechanically, every single, everything all the way around is going to help someone. And how can we not make this standard of care?
