From breast cancer surgeon to patient ~ dealing with cancer from both sides
Liz O'Riordan grew up in a medical family, and always knew she wanted to become a surgeon. She specialised in breast surgery and has a PHD in thyroid cancers and how they develop.
As a female in a male dominated field she has faced bullying and sexual harassment and had a very stressful, high pressured job.
She has been a surgeon for over 15 years, and has performed thousands of surgeries. She had lots of knowledge on treating cancer, but when she was diagnosed herself at 40, she found dealing with cancer from the patient's perspective very different.
We discuss her own journey, and her hair loss, and how she has learned to embrace her new identity. Liz describes how there can often be an element of reinvention after cancer treatment.
