Podcast appearances and mentions of Mark Lewis

We're dropping this bonus episode because something genuinely historic happened in oncology and we couldn't wait until our regular schedule to talk about it. Dr. Mark Lewis, GI medical oncologist, pancreatic cancer survivor, and one of our absolute favorite guests. He just got back from ASCO, the Super Bowl of oncology, where a new drug called daraxonrasib received one of only about six standing ovations in the conference's history, including applause that broke out mid-sentence when researchers showed the survival data on-screen. The drug targets a mutation that drives the vast majority of pancreatic cancer and has been considered "undruggable" for decades and it works not by attacking the mutation directly, but by cutting off the downstream signals it sends, like snipping the wire instead of fighting with the switch. The results are remarkable. In patients who had already received standard chemotherapy, daraxonrasib roughly doubled survival time and delivered it in pill form rather than an IV every two weeks, a meaningful quality-of-life difference for people who are already facing the hardest year of their lives. Mark walks us through the science, the side effects (rash, because RAS proteins live in skin too), the path to FDA approval, and what this means beyond pancreatic cancer, the same KRAS mutations show up in about 30% of lung cancers and 40% of colon cancers. Takeaways: Pancreatic cancer has been devastatingly hard to treat, 85% of patients are incurable at diagnosis because it spreads silently and there's no good screening, leaving most patients with a median survival of about a year on IV chemotherapy. KRAS, the mutation driving nearly all pancreatic cancer, was long considered "undruggable", the protein was so smooth and spherical that no drug could bind to it, and researchers were actively discouraged from pursuing it as a target. Daraxonrasib works by cutting the power rather than fighting the switch, instead of binding to the KRAS protein itself, it uses molecular glue to interrupt the downstream growth signals the mutation sends, an approach that took decades to develop and wasn't taken seriously until now. The trial results roughly doubled survival and the treatment is a daily pill, not an IV, patients who had already been treated with chemotherapy gained approximately an additional year of life with improved quality of life, which represents one of the most significant advances in pancreatic cancer treatment in decades. This breakthrough has implications far beyond the pancreas, KRAS mutations drive about 30% of lung cancers and 40% of colon cancers too, and proving the target is druggable opens the door to a new generation of treatments across multiple cancer types.

When someone is diagnosed with cancer, one of the first questions is simple: What happens next? But for many, that question doesn't come with a clear answer. Instead, it opens the door to something much harder to navigate—uncertainty.In this episode of NETWise, host Jessica Thomas explores what it means to live in that space of the unknown. From the shock of diagnosis to the ongoing reality of treatment decisions, scan results, and everything in between, uncertainty becomes a constant companion for many people living with neuroendocrine cancer.Through deeply personal stories and expert insight, this episode brings together the voices of patients, a caregiver, and a physician who is also a patient—each offering a different perspective on how to cope, adapt, and move forward without all the answers.You'll hear from:Jackie Dong, diagnosed at just 23, navigating recovery and redefining his outlook on lifeDr. Mark Lewis, oncologist and patient, sharing the limits of statistics and the reality of lived experienceJennifer Rogers Anderson, who found peace by letting go of the need to knowJessica Ochoa, confronting the hardest question—how much time do I have?Gary Murfin, emphasizing the importance of self-advocacy and informed decision-makingJamie Metzl, a caregiver whose search for knowledge became deeply personalTogether, their stories reveal a powerful truth: uncertainty doesn't just happen at diagnosis—it continues throughout the cancer journey. It shows up in treatment decisions, in waiting for scan results, in understanding the disease itself, and in imagining the future.But while uncertainty may not go away, the way we relate to it can change.This episode explores:The emotional impact of a cancer diagnosis and the shock that followsWhy statistics and percentages don't always translate to individual experienceThe balance between seeking information and avoiding overwhelmThe reality of “scan-xiety” and living between resultsHow routines, movement, and mindset can create stabilityThe importance of self-advocacy and trusted informationWhat it means to not just survive—but thrive—within uncertaintyAt its core, this conversation is about learning how to live alongside uncertainty—not by eliminating it, but by finding ways to stay grounded, present, and connected to what matters most.Because while the future may not always be clear… the way we show up for each day still is. NET specialists included in this episodeUse our episode infographics to get a visual picture of some of the things we have discussed.

In this episode, we take a deep dive into Peeping Tom, the chilling and controversial psychological thriller directed by Michael Powell. Upon release, the film was condemned, misunderstood, and effectively ended Powell's career in the UK. Decades later, it's recognized as a foundational work of modern horror and a precursor to the slasher genre.We unpack the story of Mark Lewis, a withdrawn cameraman who films the fear of his victims as he murders them—turning the audience into uneasy accomplices. Along the way, we explore how the film forces viewers to confront their own voyeurism, the ethics of spectatorship, and cinema's power to manipulate.The episode examines:How Peeping Tom weaponizes the camera as both a literal and psychological toolThe disturbing father-son experiment at the heart of Mark's traumaThe film's influence on later works like Psycho and the entire slasher traditionThe themes of voyeurism, repression, and the act of watching as complicityWe also discuss Powell's stylistic choices, the use of color and framing, and how the film blurs the line between filmmaker, character, and viewer in a way that still feels unsettling today._____________________________________________________________Feel free to email at silverscreenvideopodcast@gmail.com with any comments or thoughts.

Writer, podcaster, and healthcare advocate Kristin Flanary—or Lady Glaucomflecken as she's known online—first introduced Your Stories host Dr. Mark Lewis to the concept of co-survivorship two years ago. As her husband Will went through two testicular cancer diagnoses and a sudden cardiac arrest, she later realized that she hadn't just supported him through those experiences and challenges—she had shared them with him. For National Family Caregivers Month, Kristin returns to Your Stories to reflect on her discussion with Dr. Lewis, her feelings on co-survivorship, and the importance of showing up for the loved ones of people with cancer.

Welcome to a new edition of Vatican Insider on this penultimate weekend in November! My guests in the interview segment this weekend are Aidan Gallagher, head of EWTN Ireland, and Jesuit Fr. Bernard McCuckian, principal narrator of “The Kingship of Christ,” a documentary produced by EWTN Ireland. Other protagonists of this 4-part documentary on Christ the King that premiered November 18 in the Vatican's filmoteca or film library include Fr. Mark Lewis, SJ, Rector of the Jesuit-run Pontifical Gregorian University in Rome and Fr. Dominic Holtz, OP, Vice Dean of the Faculty of Philosophy at the Angelicum, the Dominican university in Rome.

Professional snowboarder Kimmy Fasani was still breastfeeding her second child when she found a lump under her armpit. Just days later, she was diagnosed with an aggressive form of breast cancer and found herself preparing for chemotherapy. Having lost both her parents to cancer, it was a terrifying moment for her, but she tried not to let her family history loom over her as she began treatment. Instead, she focused on the lessons learned from years spent tackling mountain peaks—to stay flexible and adaptable when her plans were upended and to find beauty in the adventure even if she hadn't asked for it. At the time of her diagnosis, Kimmy and her husband Chris were filming a documentary following five years of their lives and careers. As she faced the challenges of chemotherapy, radiation, and a double mastectomy, she opted to keep the cameras rolling, documenting the highs and lows of her treatment with unflinching honesty. As difficult as it could be to show the world her most vulnerable moments, Kimmy came out on the other side inspired and hopeful that she could remind others like her that they aren't facing cancer by themselves. In this episode of Your Stories, Kimmy speaks with host Dr. Mark Lewis about the power of advocating for herself, leaning on loved ones, and looking towards the future.

 Industrial Water Week 2025: Careers Friday brings the celebration back to first principles—mentors, disciplined training, and field diagnostics that go beyond the screen. Trace reflects on the people who invested in his craft, recognizes guest contributors across the week, and issues a practical challenge to invest in one new professional before the day ends.   Foundations that Compound A candid mentorship story anchors today's episode. Trace recalls how early-career intimidation turned into decades of teaching fundamentals and math at AWT—proof that asking better questions grows better practitioners. Careers Friday becomes a prompt to text the person who built your foundation—and to be that person for someone else.  Fieldcraft Over Flash: A Detective H2O Lesson  The Detective H2O case distills high-value diagnostics for cooling systems: TTPC biocide can mask PTSA and fool controllers into overfeeding inhibitor; missing blowdown lockout during biocide feed wastes product; and stabilized bromine can become over-stabilized in long-HTI systems—driving ORP spikes, corrosion risk, and poor microbial control. Technology is essential, but interpretation is the craft.  Community Voices and a Career Pledge  Careers Friday features greetings from industry professionals and closes with Water You Know, a reminder that water often carries purchased energy (heat, cooling, pressure, flow, pre-treatment) that leaders must account for. The day ends with a clear ask: celebrate your mentors, share your origin story with #IWW25 and #ScalingUpH2O, and pledge to help one newcomer discover industrial water treatment.  Durable careers are built on shared knowledge, thoughtful diagnostics, and intentional mentorship. Use today to do all three.  Listen to the full conversation above. Explore related episodes below.

Wastewater isn't an endpoint—it's a decision point. On Wastewater Thursday, host Trace Blackmore, CWT sharpens the operator's toolkit with field-tested lessons: dose by mechanism, verify by sampling discipline, and use wastewater's fast feedback to protect quality, cost, and permits. Sampling discipline protects credibility Trace recounts an early-career moment when an inspector sampled the wrong location, triggering alarms. Immediate, methodical resampling—guided by logs and a clear process map—proved the system was in spec. The leadership takeaway: embed verification before escalation. Clear sampling points, time-stamped logs, and a rapid “reproduce the reading” drill turn uncertainty into clarity.  Mechanism over myth: coagulant control  In a new Detective H2O case, James McDonald explains why overfeeding coagulant collapses floc. When particles swing past neutral, like charges repel again and settling stalls. The fix is not “more chemistry,” but right-sizing dose to production and confirming with jar tests at the correct take-off point.  From discharge to resource  Greetings from past guests reinforce the shift under way. Arnaud Valleteau de Moulliac (Veolia Water Technology) frames wastewater as a local, decarbonized resource—with energy-positive plants and reuse as standard practice. Steve Russell (Kiewit) notes supply pressure will push even deeper recycling.

When Molly Hones was diagnosed with fibrolamellar cancer for the second time in less than two years, she made two critical decisions. First: She wouldn't focus on the unknowns of her condition and would focus on the positives instead.  Second, she would give back by participating in research. And so, in June 2023, Molly traveled to the Johns Hopkins Hospital, where oncologist and Conquer Cancer grant recipient Marina Baretti, MD, was running a clinical trial for people with fibrolamellar cancer. “I like to say I'm donating my body to science while I'm still alive,” Molly says. “And how cool is it to see my legacy when I'm still around?”  Which is how she found herself in Baltimore, Maryland, on the day she received an unthinkable phone call: Her husband Grant had passed away at age 45 from a brain aneurysm.   Even faced with such devastating news, Molly remained committed to moving forward with her treatment, connecting with other fibrolamellar patients, and celebrating life whenever she could. Being brave and facing challenges with a smile on her face, she says, is her way of honoring the people she's lost and the people she's met through her cancer journey.   In this episode of Your Stories, Molly speaks with host Dr. Mark Lewis about her experience with fibrolamellar cancer, the importance of community when facing a rare cancer, and her hopes of contributing to a world where every person with cancer can live life to the fullest.

  As a young person starting over in a new country—one where she didn't even yet know the language—young Yelena faced no shortage of challenges. But she also found opportunity she believes might not have existed in her native country.  “As an Armenian individual growing up in Azerbaijan, going by my parents' and my family's experience, I don't think I would have had an opportunity to be a physician there,” Dr. Janjigian says. “There was a clear limitation on who got to be a physician, and it's a prestigious position anywhere in the world. As a relative minority, I wouldn't have been able to do that. My parents certainly had the courage it took to leave and to come to a foreign country.”  That same brand of courage led Dr. Janjigian to her current work as a gastrointestinal medical oncologist at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center. A specialist in esophageal and stomach cancer, she presented the results of her gastric cancer clinical trial during the plenary session of this year's ASCO Annual Meeting in Chicago. The presentation was the culmination of more than eight years of work involving nearly 1,000 patients and collaborators. Much of that work, she says, started when she received her first grant from Conquer Cancer, a Young Investigator Award. Receiving that funding, she recalls, was a career-defining moment.      In this episode of Your Stories, Dr. Janjigian speaks with host Dr. Mark Lewis about her journey to become an oncologist, along with her vision for a world where a cancer diagnosis isn't nearly as frightening as it is today. 

In this special episode of Ojai Talk of the Town, we sit down with the luminous Kitty Winn — award-winning actor, devoted mother, and granddaughter of Gen. George C. Marshall — to trace a remarkable life lived on her own terms.After winning Best Actress at Cannes for her raw, unforgettable performance in The Panic in Needle Park alongside Al Pacino, and stepping into horror history as Sharon in The Exorcist, Kitty stepped away from the spotlight to raise her family.Now a cherished member of the Ojai community, Kitty shares stories from her family's extraordinary legacy, including her grandmother's rebellious stint with a traveling Shakespeare troupe in the early 1900s. We explore Kitty's deep commitment to nurturing young artists through the Ojai Film Society's Student Film Contest, her thoughts on acting, legacy, and why she's chosen to make Ojai her stage today.We talked about Kitty's early years in India with her military father, Gen. Marshall's challenges in both World Wars, his post-war importance and much more. We did not talk about Instagram flexibility gurus, Brad Pitt in Formula One or Edward Gibbon's Decline & Fall of the Roman Empire.It's a graceful, insightful conversation with a woman who continues to inspire — quietly, steadily, and with uncommon elegance. You can read more about this remarkable woman in Mark Lewis' story in the Ojai Quarterly archives at https://www.ojaihub.com/winns-circle/

In episode 4 of Season 4, we discuss the inherent skepticism that many Christians still maintain towards modern medical treatment. We speak with Lauren Hunter who was raised as a Christian Scientist, a denomination of Christianity that, rather ironically, does not acknowledge the science of disease. We also interview Dr. John Horgan, assistant professor of history at Concordia University in Wisconsin who specializes in the history of diseases and epidemics, about the genesis of germ theory. Finally, we sit down with Dr. Mark Lewis, a gastrointestinal oncologist who describes the role of faith and prayer when his patients undergo treatment for cancer.

In this reprise episode of Ojai Talk of the Town, we sit down with writer and historian Mark Lewis to explore one of the most unsettling chapters in American cultural history — the Hollywood Blacklist. Mark's feature in the Fall 2015 issue of the Ojai Quarterly dove deep into the fear-fueled politics of the late 1940s and '50s, when actors, writers, and directors were exiled from the entertainment industry for alleged Communist ties.Many of those key figures lived in Ojai - names like Paul Jerrico, Michael Wilson and Dalton Trumbo, where they found a haven and an understanding community.Through richly detailed storytelling and incisive commentary, Mark reveals how the House Un-American Activities Committee (HUAC) hearings not only destroyed careers but also reshaped Hollywood and American public life. We discuss the rise of informants, the toll on personal lives, and the eerie parallels between that Red Scare era and the social media-fueled cancel culture and political polarization of today.This conversation isn't just a history lesson — it's a warning. As we reflect on the past, we're forced to ask: how do we protect freedom of expression without falling prey to fear and conformity? We did not talk about Vaclav Smil's latest work, impending screw worm disasters or the rise of our new digital overlords.Don't miss this hauntingly timely discussion on art, politics, and the enduring fight for the soul of American storytelling.

It started—as these stories so often do—with fatigue. At first, Jace Yawnick simply chalked it up to a busy life and a job requiring frequent travel. But then he noticed something: There were times the fatigue kicked in when he hadn't just gotten off a plane or done anything else particularly strenuous. “Intuitively,” Jace says, “something within me just knew something wasn't right.”  Then came the coughing and the back pain. It would be months—and more than one misdiagnosis—before doctors found the problem: Hodgkin lymphoma. As he processed the news of his diagnosis, Jace realized something: Facing cancer was not something he wanted to do by himself.    And so, when he started to chronicle his cancer experience online, he was simply looking for catharsis and camaraderie. He got both—along with a community of 700,000-plus followers who've followed his entire journey in hopes of seeing the moment he fulfilled a cherished goal: to ring the bell and declare himself cancer-free. In this episode, Jace talks to Your Stories host Dr. Mark Lewis about what it's like to share your cancer journey with thousands of people, the importance of advocating for yourself, and the role of community when it comes to conquering cancer. 

It took a long time after I first read David Menconi's work to finally meet him, and longer still to sit with him for an extended conversation, but fortunately, the time has finally come. And if the saying “good things come to those who wait” applies here, if I was indeed waiting years for that Tuesday afternoon interview in late September 2024, then it is doubly appropriate now that our conversation sees the light of day in this podcast nearly another half a year afterwards. Decades after first reading his work, more than a year after first meeting him, and another stretch of months after interviewing him, now is the moment for all of this to come together. It all feels a bit fortuitous, a feeling which is echoed in our conversation, especially regarding the subject of David Menconi's latest book. David Menconi was a staff writer at the Raleigh News & Observer for 28 years, beginning in 1991, when the music scene in the region was exploding nationwide. He has also written for Rolling Stone, Billboard, Spin and New York Times. His latest book is titled Oh, Didn't They Ramble: Rounder Records and the Transformation of American Roots Music. David Menconi spoke with me at the IBMA conference in his adopted hometown of Raleigh, North Carolina, in a conversation which touches on the remarkable story of Rounder Records, a music label whose story, as David put it, is the kismet story. A label formed by three idealistic folkies fresh out of college, it went on to champion the music of artists ranging from Alice Gerard to Alison Krauss, from the Blake Babies to Billy Strings, and from Ted Hawkins to Tony Rice. David talks about the Rounder Records story, the current state of the music industry, the challenges faced by writers and musicians alike, as well as the significant history of bluegrass music in the city of Raleigh and the state of North Carolina and more, including music excerpts from Rounder Records artists like Norman Blake and George Thorogood in this episode Southern Songs and Stories. David Menconi Songs heard in this episode:Tony Rice “Monroe's Hornpipe”, from The Bluegrass Album Band, Volume 6“Tango Cool“ by Ted Gioia & Mark Lewis, from Tango Cool, excerpt“Ginseng Sullivan” by Norman Blake, from Back Home In Sulphur Springs, excerpt“Move It On Over” by George Thorogood & the Destroyers, from Move It On Over, excerpt“Away From the Mire” by Billy Strings, from HomeThanks for being here!

Welcome to the daily304 – your window into Wonderful, Almost Heaven, West Virginia.   Today is Monday, March 10, 2025. A major offroading trail expansion is expected to boost outdoor recreation and tourism in Eastern Kanawha County…the quirky draw of George Washington's Bath Tub attracts travelers to Berkeley Springs…and the Parkersburg CVB's new welcome center brings an increase in visitors …on today's daily304. #1 – From WV NEWS – A major outdoor recreation project in Eastern Kanawha County is poised to transform the area into a premier destination for off-road enthusiasts.  The Appalachian Outlaw Trails is adding more than 2,000 acres of trails designed for ATVs, dirt bikes, side-by-sides, and full-size vehicles like Jeeps and trucks. This expansion aims to attract tourists and outdoor adventurers from West Virginia and the entire East Coast. Currently featuring 25 miles of trails in the Upper Kanawha Valley, AOT has ambitious plans to double this mileage. The goal is to develop one of the most extensive off-roading parks in the nation, covering over 100,000 acres in the long term. The ultimate plan is to develop a comprehensive outdoor recreation resort complete with cabins, a concert venue, mountain biking trails, hiking paths, horseback riding areas, and clay shooting venues.  The Kanawha County Commission is collaborating with AOT on this multi-phase project, with the initial focus on developing trails in the Quincy area.

But of all the George Washington showcases, this reporter's favorite is a national park in the small town of Berkeley Springs, West Virginia. That's where America's first president was said to bathe in an open-air brick tub that reads, not surprisingly, “George Washington's Bath Tub.” It was filled with warm natural mineral spring water emanating from the surrounding mountainous countryside. What makes traveling to Berkeley Springs most enticing is that we can join, at least figuratively, Washington in sitting in a large indoor bathtub that can easily accommodate two bathers and is filled with 104-degree mineral water. It's situated in what's called the Old Roman Bath House at Berkeley Springs State Park.

The Welcome Center, which opened in April 2022 after relocating to 113 Ann St., has continually seen more people each year, CVB President and CEO Mark Lewis said. The bureau and Lewis won the Excellence in Tourism Development award at the 2025 Hospitality University conference held Jan. 26-28 at the Greenbrier. The increase in tourism has enabled them to double the attendance at the Oil and Gas Museum and at Henderson Hall, while the main draw continues to be Blennerhasset Island Historical State Park.

Whitechapel's Ben Savage On The Loaded Radio Podcast TL;DR In this episode of The Loaded Radio Podcast, Whitechapel guitarist Ben Savage discusses the band's highly anticipated new album, Hymns In Dissonance, set for release on March 7 via Metal Blade Records. He dives into the writing process, the band's heaviest breakdowns yet, his biggest influences, and what fans can expect from their upcoming North American tour. Listen to the full interview below! Whitechapel's Hymns In Dissonance: Their Most Brutal Album Yet? For over a decade, Whitechapel has been at the forefront of modern deathcore, delivering devastating riffs, punishing breakdowns, and unrelenting aggression. Now, with their ninth studio album, Hymns In Dissonance, the Knoxville-based metal titans are taking their sound to darker and heavier depths than ever before. According to guitarist Alex Wade, the album is designed to be “shockingly menacing and brutal.” With guttural lows, eerie atmospheres, and crushing riffage, Hymns In Dissonance is poised to be one of the heaviest releases of 2024. In this week's episode of The Loaded Radio Podcast, we sit down with Ben Savage to break down the album's concept, the band's unique approach to songwriting, and what went into crafting this monstrous new record. The Concept Behind Hymns In Dissonance Unlike their previous album, Kin (2021), which explored deeply personal themes, Hymns In Dissonance is a concept album centered around a cult leader gathering followers to commit heinous acts in worship of their dark lord. Frontman Phil Bozeman describes the album's title as a direct contradiction: “Hymns are melodious and harmonious. Dissonance is the opposite. Dissonance represents evil. These tracks serve as hymns for the cult, each one symbolizing a deadly sin.” The record follows a 10-track journey that builds upon Whitechapel's legacy while introducing some of their lowest tunings and most intricate guitar work yet. Whitechapel's Heaviest Riffs Yet? One of the most exciting elements of Hymns In Dissonance is its brutal guitar work. In the interview, Ben Savage breaks down how Whitechapel pushed their sound further than ever before. One key highlight is the album's title track, which drops to Drop F tuning in its final breakdown—the lowest tuning Whitechapel has ever used. According to Wade, the shift in tuning helps create an “overwhelmingly crushing” finale that fans will undoubtedly feel in their bones. The album's lead single, “A Visceral Retch,” was the first taste of this new sound, immediately receiving high praise from fans for its sheer intensity. The Making of Hymns In Dissonance Unlike previous albums, the writing and recording process for Hymns In Dissonance was entirely in-house, with Zach Householder handling production duties. Having worked closely with producer Mark Lewis over the years, Householder was able to bring his deep understanding of Whitechapel's sound into the production process, ensuring maximum impact with every track. Savage also discusses how the band approached writing in a structured, weekday-only schedule, which allowed them to stay focused while avoiding burnout. Whitechapel's Hymns In Dissonance North American Tour With the album set to drop on March 7, Whitechapel is gearing up for a massive North American tour in support of Hymns In Dissonance. The month-long trek kicks off on March 18 in Raleigh, NC, and wraps up on April 19 in Atlanta, GA.

For Mark Lewis, MD, cancer has defined his entire life. Growing up, he witnessed his father's valiant struggle with cancer before it eventually ended his life. While still in medical training, he not only developed pancreatic cancer but also discovered the culprit. Multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1, an inherited syndrome that drastically increases one's risk of cancers, runs in his family. So now, as a father, he guides his son in making sense of a life burdened with that risk. What's more, as an oncologist, Dr. Lewis has also dedicated his professional life to understanding and treating cancers of the gastrointestinal system. In this deeply personal conversation filled with pathos, wisdom, and hope, Dr. Lewis shares how he learned to cope with the rage he felt towards cancer in his early years, the solace he finds in religion and how he tactfully approaches matters of spirituality with his patients, how he was fundamentally transformed after undergoing the daunting Whipple surgical procedure, the wonder he feels when considering the remarkable progress science has made in cancer therapies, and how he channels his personal experiences to connect with patients. This is an episode that paints a portrait of grace, resilience, and courage in the face of suffering and loss, and it reminds us to search for the dignity that is inherent in the act of caring for another person.In this episode, you'll hear about: 2:43 - How watching his father deal with cancer led Dr. Lewis to a career in medicine.7:04 - How Dr. Lewis managed the grief and rage that came with his father's passing. 11:10 - How the speed of medical innovation drives Dr. Lewis' optimism. 19:51 - The role that faith plays in Dr. Lewis' work and in his relationships with patients.29:07 - Dr. Lewis' experience as a cancer patient and how it has informed his work as an oncologist. 39:21 - The ethical challenges involved in administering toxic treatments in oncology. 42:24 - The deeper meaning that Dr. Lewis has found through his experiences at the intersection of science and faith. 48:57 - Dr. Lewis' advice for empathizing and connecting with patients. Dr. Mark Lewis can be found on Twitter/X at @marklewismd.Visit our website www.TheDoctorsArt.com where you can find transcripts of all episodes.If you enjoyed this episode, please subscribe, rate, and review our show, available for free on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
