Neuroendocrine (Net) Cancer Patients Get No R-E-S-P-E-C-T
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (August 30, 2018) -- Seven years after Apple co-founder Steve Jobs passed, the Neuroendocrine cancer community still gets "no respect." As fans pay their respects to the Queen of Soul Aretha Franklin this week, the need for Neuroendocrine (NET) cancer awareness is heightened as her physician, Dr. Philip A. Philip, confirms her correct diagnosis--pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors, commonly referred to as pNETs. Many media outlets only reported "pancreatic cancer" and gave statistics that do not apply for pNETs. "Pancreatic cancer of the Neuroendocrine type," as reported by Franklin's publicist, is a completely different disease than the typical and more common pancreatic cancer (adenocarcinoma). Franklin's physician, Dr. Philip shared, "The only thing they have in common is they both arise from the pancreas." When the media does not get it right in the case of a beloved well known public icon, it can have a serious impact on the diagnosed and undiagnosed patient
