In this powerful virtual episode of All Talk Oncology, host Kenny Perkins (Your Cancer Guy) connects online with Dr. Jose Jimenez, a leading oncologic surgeon at Clinica Biblica in San Jose.

Dr. Jimenez opens up about what most patients never see the emotional weight of delivering a cancer diagnosis and the responsibility surgeons carry long after they leave the operating room. From sharing tears with families to offering prayers before surgery, he reveals why compassion, humility, and faith are essential parts of cancer care.

This conversation goes beyond surgical technique. Dr. Jimenez explains Costa Rica’s public and private healthcare systems and why he chooses to serve in both to ensure that patients from all backgrounds receive quality care. He also shares why holistic, team-based oncology including psychology, nutrition, and coordinated specialty care is critical for true healing.

In this episode, Dr. Jimenez discusses: • The emotional reality of telling patients they have stage III or IV cancer • What surgeons feel after complex oncologic procedures • The power of empathy, prayer, and personal connection • Why patients are never “just a case” • Costa Rica’s public vs. private healthcare system • The importance of multidisciplinary oncology teams • Why humility is a cornerstone of great medicine

This episode is a reminder that behind every white coat is a human being and behind every diagnosis is someone who deserves compassion, honesty, and hope.

LaShae shares her unique perspective of being both a scientist in the field and a patient in the clinic, proving that strength comes in many forms.

LaShae opens up about:

• How she used her knowledge of lifestyle factors—diet, protein intake, and exercise—to prepare her body for the "battle" of chemotherapy and surgery.
• Navigating treatment decisions, such as opting for a unilateral mastectomy and freezing her eggs, based on clinical research and long-term goals.
• Maintaining her powerlifting routine and squatting over 400lbs even during chemotherapy to combat fatigue and maintain bone health.
• How surviving cancer led her to adopt a "you only live once" mindset, focusing on advocacy and living life to the max.
• The importance of adolescent and young adult (AYA) support groups and using social media to connect with other survivors.
