Urology Care Podcast

On this episode we had the honor of speaking with two guests on the topic of pheochromocytoma or an adrenal gland tumor. Our first guest is Michael Campbell, a pheochromocytoma survivor, who shares a powerful story of how he learned about his diagnosis and the journey he then had to take to fight for his life. Our second guest is Dr. Ben Ristau, a urologic oncologist at UConn Health in Connecticut and one of the doctors who ultimately helped to save Michael's life. Dr. Ristau talks about pheochromocytoma from a medical perspective and details what you should know. Stay tuned at the end of this episode for an “Ask the Experts” segment, where Michael will get to ask Dr. Ristau some questions from a patient’s perspective. Short on time?
