Early in the morning on July 22, 2015, five years ago today, Dr. Isaacs found out that her long-time colleague and friend, Dr. Nicholas Gonzalez, had suddenly passed away the night before.
Dr. Gonzalez would have definitely reacted strongly to a book that was recently published: Malignant: How Bad Policy and Bad Evidence Harm People with Cancer, by Vinayak K. Prasad, MD. Written by an oncologist at a major medical center, it details many of
the issues with poor quality evidence and unmanageable costs that mar the current practice of oncology.
