Prostate Cancer: Who’s at Risk and How Treatment Is Evolving — With Dr. Nitin K. Yerram

Why a Second Opinion Could Save Cancer Patients From Unnecessary Treatment

In this eye-opening episode, host Jaime Catmull sits down with Howard Wolinsky, an award-winning Chicago-based freelance medical journalist who spent nearly 30 years as the medical writer for the Chicago Sun-Times. Together, they unpack a growing concern in modern medicine: some cancer patients may be receiving treatments they don’t actually need. Howard shares what he’s uncovered through his own personal experience with cancer care, second opinions, and the difficult decisions patients face after diagnosis and test results. The conversation explores how fear, uncertainty, evolving medical guidelines, and gaps in communication can sometimes lead to overtreatment — and why getting a second opinion can completely change a patient’s path forward. This episode is a powerful reminder that asking more questions, exploring options, and becoming an informed advocate for your health can make all the difference.
