I am so grateful for your podcast! I was diagnosed with metastatic HER2+ in Nov 2023. Underwent TCHP for 6 rounds and it melted the tumor and I have no active cancer cells in my lymph nodes. No surgery or radiation required. I have learned a lot from your podcasts and am going to embark on a plant forward diet. Thank you Dr. Teplinsky!

I have TnBC 3b, been a journey. Your podcasts and I updates in instagram. Absolutely brings me joy!

This podcast series has been a tremendous resource for me as I moved through treatment and reintegrate back into life as a survivor. The wide range of topics and speakers answer questions I didn’t know I had. Thank you!

As a breast cancer survivor, I listen to podcasts from time to time to keep up on the latest news. Dr T. shares information in a way that is both informative and motivating for a person stepping into survivorship. This episode in particular about nutrition and diet was so helpful for someone after active treatment. Some of the information shared was so simple but I can imagine it making a big impact (like planning ahead to ensure you are getting the most nutrient dense unprocessed food during a stressful time so you are not stuck eating junk when u are feeling not great to begin with!) I can also see how it could be so helpful for someone in treatment or for a caregiver supporting someone going through active treatment. Bravo to both of you! Hoping for a part 2 with more useful tips at some point in the future!

I follow both Allison and Dr. Teplinsky and thought it was so wonderful to have the two of them together. There discussion was so positive and informative and I learned a lot of useful information.

I’ve listened to several of Dr. Teplinsky’s podcast episodes and I find them educational and uplifting. Dr. Teplinsky provides evidence based, easy to understand guidance and explains the “why” behind the answers. She also includes many guest speakers to share broader information about breast and gynecological cancers and services that cancer survivors can research and leverage. While receiving a cancer diagnosis makes you feel like you are falling down a deep dark hole, Dr. Teplinsky’s podcast shines a light into the darkness to help you find your way.

I love listening to this podcast to learn about women’s health. Dr. Teplinski stays up to date on all of the most current guidelines, research, and medical breakthroughs. I really enjoy the Q&A where she answers what her listeners would like to know. Definitely a “must listen” for all women ! Thank you, Dr., for all you do!

The episodes I’ve listened to are women who are both realistic, determined and positive. They recognize that this disease is NOT what it used to be. What is cool is that is focuses on women, whose uniqueness is so often overlooked by the medical industry. AND it upends often out-dated attitudes about cancer, something I discovered soon after my diagnosis with a cancer so rare and so aggressive that it only comes in stage 4. .Once you get friends and family to realize how much has happened -esp. when you get diagnosed early and find the place that can cure you, makes cancer a whole new—and eminently treatable-ballgame. It means you’re not just surviving, but thriving, with a whole new appreciation of life, loved ones and your own body. Love her guests, feels like I’m listening to my girlfriends!

After listening to Episode 137, I just had to write a review. As a breast cancer survivor, I felt so understood while listening and kept nodding my head, saying “yes” out loud. Dr. Teplinsky is doing such great work and deserves to be applauded. Thank you for this beautiful podcast.

This podcast is awesome. As a breast cancer survivor/thriver this podcast has been so incredibly helpful. Dr. Teplinsky is incredibly informative and she interviews a wide range of guests. It’s full of tons of helpful information and, most importantly, makes me feel less alone in the cancer journey. Thanks, Dr. Teplinsky!

Thank you Dr. Teplinsky for providing such great information! As a current “thriver” your podcasts are yet another resource to educate myself and others in my situation. I’ve learned so much from listening to a few podcasts, and I can’t wait to finish listening to them all. 💕

This interlude podcast with host Dr. Teplinsky is by far one of the best podcasts out there for all things breast, ovarian and all GYN cancers as well as survivorship in general. The guests are all very well spoken and are courageous in telling their stories. I feel I get something out of each one. Dr Teplinsky explores all aspects of cancer treatments- from the medical and latest treatments to emotional issues including survivorship and all the real questions cancer patients have while navigating each of our unique challenges. I look forward to listening each week. Thank you for all you do! Betty D.❤️‍🩹

So amazing to hear other people’s stories and experiences!! Knowledge is power 🙏🏻💕✨

I really appreciate the interlude podcast for its realness and relatability. I follow Dr. Teplinsky on Instagram too, and she’s a wealth of knowledge! I even filmed my own episode with her! Thank you for continuing to record these and share your open conversations with us!

Dr Teplinsky’s podcast has made my experience of diagnosis and treatment so much easier and less intimidating. I’m so impressed by her drive and passion!

Thank you Dr. Teplinsky for hosting this podcast. As a recent breast cancer survivor, your podcast has provided endless tips, information, and made me feel a lot less alone when navigating through active treatment and now survivorship. I don’t know how you find the time to do all that you do, but from the bottom of my heart, thank you, thank YOU!

Incredible information shared on this podcast! Thank you for taking the time to share important information to all breast cancer patients and survivors.

There are so many statistics we hear about cancer patients, but we do not often hear their stories told from their perspective. Interlude is that place that allows patients to share the truth about their diagnosis and all the complex, far-reaching ripples such a life-changing event causes. I am grateful for medical providers like Dr. Teplinsky for giving patients agency and so much compassion!

These shared stories are what need. These are difficult conversations. This podcast shares individual truths, triumphs and honest vulnerability. Cancer is trauma regardless of the stage. Families go through this together. Most have no idea how to help, what to say and what support looks like. As a cancer thriver, I’m grateful for this podcast and the work she’s doing. Listen and Share.

As the husband of a breast cancer survivor, I found Dr. Teplinsky’s interview with the Marshalls very insightful, authentic, and ‘spot on’. It provided insights into what the Marshalls were both going through, what they shared with one another, and what they held back from saying until they published their book. Of particular interest was how Dr. Marshall grew as a physician as a result of being his wife’s caregiver. What struck me was what he said about some doctors not wanting to address him at visits because he was not the patient and only speaking directly to his wife. Caregivers play a critical role at doctor appointments … by taking notes, listening actively and asking questions; they are another set of ears for the patient who oftentimes don’t ‘hear’ everything. Plus, they can gain insight into how to provide better home care and support to their loved ones which is all an essential part of helping the patient. Special thanks to Dr. Teplinsky for hosting another engaging and informative interview designed to help patients and their loved ones navigate their journey.

One of my favorites. Has incredible guests and is super knowledgeable and empathetic.

I found Dr Teplinsky after an Instagram friend was on the Interlude podcast. I then started listening to every episode. These are so informative and helpful. Regardless of your cancer diagnosis, or stage you will find something helpful from each episode. There were episodes I didn’t think I would get much out of based on the title and BOY WAS I WRONG! There is info on cold capping, chemo, surgery, aromatase inhibitors, nutrition, exercise, depression etc. Since my breast cancer diagnosis 7 months ago I have looked for podcasts or books that help me through treatments and nothing comes close to Dr Teplinsky. I believe she truly cares about each person that hears the words “ you have cancer” this isn’t just a job for her, I believe it’s a passion to try to help us. I only wish I lived near her so she could be my oncologist. Please also follow her on Instagram @drteplinsky you will be so happy you did.

This podcast is so powerful! I think it helps providers better understand the lives of our patients and the treatments we commonly subject them to, their coping mechanisms and societal integration as they navigate life changed by cancer. By listening to the emotional complexities of cancer we are thrown into detailed stories of how patients do during active treatment and into survivorship. Just listening can help us pick up on ways we can reframe our thoughts and learn better ways to communicate with our patients. I also think this podcast is a great resource to direct our patients to if they need to hear from others going through (or who have gone through) similar life altering events. Additionally I am absolutely amazed by Dr. Teplinsky’s ability to do it all! As a young female oncologist it is SO nice to see trailblazing women in our field normalize this type of learning- the artistic, emotional side of medicine which can often times get lost during the rigid training we get comparing trials and memorizing tons of information. Thank you Dr. Teplinsky for this important work you are doing!

Excellent podcast which exposes a multitude of aspects of life challenges resulting from cancer and it’s treatment. Teaching Tuesday episodes are thoughtful and filled with pragmatic advice. Thank you Dr. Teplinsky for providing this platform for patients and for sharing your medical expertise.

I follow Dr. Teplinsky on Instagram and find her to be very informative. I decided to give her podcast a listen. She provides great information and I like that she has short episodes on specific topics when I only have a few minutes to listen. She discusses many good topics and I highly recommend it for anyone who has cancer.

Very informative podcasts. Great to listen to various guests and Dr. Teplinsky.

Thank you for this wonderful podcast! It is so reassuring to hear real stories from real cancer patients. Both educational and inspiring!

Relatable conversations with a lot of new and inspiring information.

I have found this podcast to be very helpful for me as I am preparing to start chemo. Although everyone cancer story is different- I have found it to be very informative and have found it to be good, honest, science- based information. I would recommend people with a cancer diagnosis and/or any caregiver/loved ones listen to this podcast. ❤️👏👏👏

Hello this is Michaela S. Cox I listened to the episode with Karen Iverson. I think it was an amazing episode that was most helpful and inspiring. I can see how this could be very useful, helpful and insightful who those who have to walk this journey. Karen did an outstanding job

An oncologist herself, Dr. Teplinsky offers insider support to cancer patients. Her podcasts are truthful and introspective into the experiences of cancer patients and those involved in their lives. These podcasts offer support at anytime - at the start of your cancer journey, during the middle, or at the end as well as at anytime of day when you most need it. I highly recommend Interlude!

The podcast is an accurate and supportive resource in a sea of misinformation. The nutrition advice is evidence-driven and answers the most asked questions from breast cancer thrivers.

I am so appreciative of the opportunity to share my story with Dr. Teplinsky!! She was so easy to talk to and asked great questions, which really helped me to feel comfortable opening up. Listening to the other interviews has been so helpful for me, and I hope to many others, who have been touched by cancer in some way!

Dr. Teplinsky is fully- immersed in her profession and goes well beyond in her hunger for disseminating the most accurate and current information for her patients and listeners. As a patient with breast Cancer, I want to bolster my immune system and nourish my body and mind in the best way I can without overloading on info. But, there is such a barrage of information you receive from friends, family, publications and survivors that your head could spin! Dr. Teplinsky does her research and confers with top physicians and nutritionists to be able to debunk the myths and distill what really will assist in overall healthy choices and decisions when it comes to food and supplementation. I highly recommend all these podcasts as they touch upon personal journeys and triumphs as well as challenges. A wonderful resource... thank you!

As a two time cancer patient, I so appreciate hearing the stories of those living with and beating cancer! I listen while I run to remind myself how strong I am! Thank you Dr. Teplinsky for being an example for all doctors on how to look at a patient beyond their fight and for letting patient hear about all different women who are able to make the best out of their experience!

The Interlude podcast is such an incredible platform for those of us affected by cancer. This show gave me the opportunity to share my story. Listening to the other episodes, it gave me great insight into other women’s experiences. Every cancer survivor’s story is unique and personal, and you learn so much from each of these stories. ❤️

Thank you for giving us a platform to express our experiences in a real & honest way!! Excellent podcasts!!

Cancer touches us all one way or another and this podcast shines a light on the patient living it. Dr. Teplinski doesn’t shy away from the hardest and most controversial topics and shows love and kindness at that. What a nice listen!

Dr. Teplinsky assembles inspiring, informative, raw and honest accounts of what Breast Cancer looks like and feels like across ages, circumstances, emotions and reality. Each episode focuses on someone’s personal experience with it, pulling back the many layers that were/are involved. A must listen!

This podcast is a must listen for anyone who has ever been affected by breast cancer, and let’s face it, that’s almost all of us. Dr Teplinsky’s interview style is approachable and thoughtful. Her ability to highlight the most important elements of the cancer experience comes from her unique perspective as an oncologist and her understanding of the human condition. I was impressed as a subject and the outcome of our conversation was an insightful, informative piece.

These stories are a must listen for any woman who is newly diagnosed, in the midst of treatment or post-treatment (and the people who love them). The candid, vulnerable and real conversation make you feel like you are listening to friends talk about what it's really like to live through cancer in an open, vulnerable and engaging way. There is so much to learn by listening to the experiences of others and this podcast really brings that home.

Interesting perspectives, excellent interviewer. I learned of the word hiraeth, feeling of longing for a place you cannot return to. I love that word!

This podcast is a great resource for anyone going through cancer to hear a patient and oncologist discuss. Having an oncologist for a host is beyond helpful. How amazing to have an oncologist this vested in her patients too, bringing empathy and helpful tips to so many!!

As a recent cancer survivor, absolutely nothing helps like hearing from people who have been there.

Thank you Dr. Teplinsky for giving us a a platform to speak and share our stories. For whoever is listening, I hope you can learn from us, cheer us and I hope this will encourage you to speak up.

Listening to these women’s stories really makes you realize what a safe environment Dr. Teplinsky has created for those struggling with Cancer. Real life experiences told, heart wrenching stories and so much genuine emotion to help women everywhere battling ❤️

This show is an honest account of what it’s like to live with cancer while also living life. The women speak of challenges that they faced and how they dealt with them. A must listen for anyone who has ever been affected by cancer.
