This week on The Less Stressed Life Podcast, I have on Dr. Michael Robinson who is a naturopathic doctor specializing in naturopathic oncology. Michael shares how utilizing personalized cancer care from a naturopathic oncologist can drastically improve quality of life and treatment outcomes while going through a cancer diagnosis and treatment. Cancer treatment doesn't have to be miserable, and we can protect your body while fighting the cancer. Michael also tells us why sometimes the best hospitals in the world don't deliver care like this for their cancer patients.
