Dr. Sheetal Kircher is a GI oncologist at Northwestern Medicine. She’s brilliant. She’s insightful. She’s kind. And Shailushi and Kosha are so lucky that she’s also their cousin.
Your co-hosts talk to Dr Sheetal Kircher on their first episode of I Am Speaking w/ Expert Voices. As an oncologist of GI-based cancers, Dr. Kircher’s discussions with her patients often involve end-of-life wishes, hospice care, and acceptance of hard truths. Her work is vital and fulfilling, but bringing people to acceptance of their mortality takes a toll also, which she discusses in depth with us. Dr. Kircher shares with us what’s she’s learned over the years, her complicated relationship with words like “gratitude” and “hope”, and why she’s sometimes tired of hugging her kids so damn hard.
Dr. Kircher, thank you for joining us on our inaugural episode of I Am Speaking w/ Expert Voices. Your story is not only fascinating and poignant, but we also think it will encourage our listeners to take moments for themselves, discuss their end-of-life wishes with their loved ones, and open themselves up to understanding their own journey forward.
