Paola Bertolotti, MD, PhD, MEDSIR, Barcelona, Spain, discusses the multiple challenges women face in accessing cancer care, including lack of awareness, financial constraints, limited access to early detection and treatment, cultural and social factors, as well as prioritizing family needs over personal health. Strategies to address these gaps include making cancer information accessible and understandable, improving healthcare systems in underserved areas, and increasing the availability of female healthcare providers. This interview was recorded via an online conference call with The Video Journal of Oncology (VJOncology).
