Both Dr. Crane and our show’s host Dr. Kamran Goudarzi, have seen their respective areas of medical specialties undergo quite an evolution in recent years which has lead to an increasing number of positive patient outcomes. During their conversation, Dr. Crane sheds light on inspiring stories of hope for skin cancer patients, including those with advanced metastatic melanoma.

Later in the episode, Dr. Crane shares his predictions for what could be on the horizon for skin cancer treatment options (hint: it could involve a simple pill).
