Patient Engagement, On and Offline with Dr. Don Dizon

Today's guest is Dr. Don Dizon, a renowned oncologist
specializing in women's cancers and affiliated with a handful of
top medical institutions including Lifespan Cancer Institute,
Rhode Island Hospital, and Brown University.


Don and I met in 2017 when we were both speaking at a patient
experience conference held by Teva Pharmaceuticals in Barcelona.
Like discovering a lost sibling we were joined at the hip the
entire conference, and have been friends ever since.


This conversation is full of fascinating twists and turns. We
discussed how Don created a balance between his beautiful family
and a prestigious career, why he believes all medical
professionals should be embracing social media, and of course,
Don shares his story of a chance encounter with lasting impact.


Our interview was scheduled for the day of crazy snowstorm, so
Don ended up calling in from his home office, which means you
might hear a bit of his family jostling around in the background.
As far as I'm concerned, it made the conversation that much more
relatable.
