In the podcast episode "Transition of Care: Oncology Specialist to Primary Care," Dr. Lesly Dossett from Michigan Medicine highlights the essential need for effective communication when patients transition from oncology specialists back to their primary care providers. She stresses that a smooth transition ensures that primary care physicians are informed about patients' cancer histories and ongoing health issues, which is crucial for maintaining continuity of care. Dr. Dossett advocates for collaborative care plans and follow-ups to address lingering side effects and enhance the overall well-being of cancer survivors.
