  1. This is informative podcast is encouraging, upbeat and in language that is accessible to most patients. What a gift to us: lymphoma and leukemia patients.

    Dr. Frank has been my doctor for many years now, since his days as a fellow in the lymphoma clinic. He guide me through CAR-T therapy one year ago (at the height of terror about COVID) and continues to provide compassionate, non-paternalistic care. He practices what he says, especially about the best way to care for patients… the end of this excellent session. I realize those of us with access to doctors like Drs. Frank and Muffly, and to cancer centers like Stanford”s — are exceedingly fortunate. I hope for the day when these procedures are available to the majority of patients… not only the fortunate few.
