Sexual and gender minority patients with cancer experience health disparities that impact access to screening and treatment—and can have worse outcomes as a result. On this mini-podcast, we explore the barriers and challenges that LGBTQ+ patients with cancer face, and how cancer programs can make their care more inclusive.

Guest: Rosemary Thomas, MPH, CHES, Director of Operations, Penn Medicine Center for Health Equity; Associate Director, Penn Med Program for LGBTQ Health
