[Ep 37] Are Doctors Treating Cancer Backwards? | Dr. Nathan Goodyear

Cancer care is changing fast and many patients feel stuck choosing between “conventional” vs “holistic.” In this episode, Dr. Nathan Goodyear breaks down what integrative oncology can look like when the goal is precision, immune-focused strategy, and patient empowerment. Recorded at the Metabolic Health Day Conference in Tucson, AZ, this conversation explores why “standard of care” often misses the N=1 reality, how innovation is outpacing regulation, and why the future of cancer care may depend on better collaboration between patients, doctors, and data. In this episode, you’ll hear: Why Dr. Goodyear stepped away from prior leadership roles to push innovation further The difference between “intervening” vs helping the body heal and recover Why the immune system is central to modern cancer conversations The case for personalized, stacked strategies instead of one-size-fits-all protocols How AI may help patients ask better questions (and where it can go wrong) About Dr. Nathan Goodyear (from the episode): Medical Director at Williams Cancer Institute.
