Summary
Radiation therapy offers a significant advantage in treating non-melanoma skin cancers, but it is often overlooked when Mohs surgery is presented to patients as the sole option. Dedicated superficial treatment equipment, like that used in dermatology offices, provides an alternative and highly effective treatment with a superior patient experience. This integration not only benefits the patient by keeping them within their familiar practice but also enhances the practice's offerings and patient retention. The true art lies in building trust through open communication and ensuring patients are aware of all available treatment options. On this episode of The Distinctive Dermatologist, John Klade from SkinCure Oncology talks with Scott McKain about his new podcast for radiation therapists -- Born to Beam -- and discusses the role of the radiation therapist in a dermatology practice.
