Cancer Without Chemotherapy: ‘A Totally Different World’
The New York Times
A growing number of cancer patients, especially those with breast and lung cancers, are being spared the dreaded treatment in favor of other options.
Dr. Seema Doshi was shocked and terrified when she found a lump in her breast that was eventually confirmed to be cancerous.
“That rocked my world,” said Dr. Doshi, a dermatologist in private practice in the Boston suburb of Franklin who was 46 at the time of her diagnosis. “I thought, ‘That’s it. I will have to do chemotherapy.’”
She was wrong.
