American Cancer Society’s Post

Growing up in rural Pennsylvania, Paul rarely remembers hearing people talk about cancer. Now, after navigating his own challenges with prostate cancer, he encourages others in his community to advocate for their own health through his volunteer work with the ACS, where he helps drive people to their cancer appointments. Together with Patrick Dempsey and Pfizer, we’re working to “Change the Odds” for people like Paul, who live in underserved communities. Hear more about Paul’s story as he and Jane, his friend and fellow ACS volunteer, share how they’re helping their community address local barriers to cancer care in our latest Front Porch Conversation.

Paul is a hero

At PharmD Live, we're inspired by Paul’s story and proud to stand with ACS, Pfizer, and volunteers working to change the odds for underserved communities. Through our pharmacist-led virtual care, we help patients navigate cancer, manage complex medications, and stay engaged in care—regardless of location. We also support #oncologists and #oncology practices with care coordination, medication therapy management, and remote monitoring to reduce burden and improve outcomes. Together, we’re making cancer care more accessible and equitable.

Paul, you are such an inspiration! 💪
