From Advocate to Patient: A Story of Early Detection and Hope
<a href="https://support.doctorpodcasting.com/media/k2/items/cache/f00c1e0985e46539a52059119ad9d275_Generic.jpg"><img align="right" border="0" src="https://support.doctorpodcasting.com/media/k2/items/cache/f00c1e0985e46539a52059119ad9d275_S.jpg" alt="from-advocate-to-patient-a-story-of-early-detection-and-hope" /></a><p>What happens when a woman who spent 40 years at the pinnacle of the pharmaceutical industry—championing patient relations—suddenly becomes the patient herself? In this moving episode, we sit down with Mary Frances Harmon, Senior Vice President at PTC Therapeutics, and her physician, Evan H. Fountain, MD, pulmonologist with Southeast Georgia Physician Associates-Pulmonary Medicine. <br /><br />After surviving uterine cancer in her early 30s, Mary moved from New Jersey to the serene shores of St. Simons Island, Georgia, embracing a quieter coastal lifestyle. Years later, a routine health check and elevated cholesterol prompted a precautionary low-dose CT scan–one that unexpectedly revealed a small shadow on her lung, changing her journey from advocate to patient once again.<br /><br />Join us as we explore Mary’s experience through the lens of a seasoned industry expert facing one of life’s most personal challenges. We’ll discuss the leading-edge technology of the Ion robotic-assisted bronchoscopy that helped detect her Stage 1B lung cancer early, the power of the patient-doctor partnership and how a life dedicated to medicine prepared her for the fight of her life. It’s a story of precision, perspective and the persistence of hope.</p>
