Less Radical

Less Radical, a two-time Webby nominated documentary podcast, tells the remarkable and little-known story of Dr. Bernie Fisher, the surgeon-scientist who redefined breast cancer treatment and changed how we understand cancer itself.

Dr. Fisher, an unlikely hero from Pittsburgh who overcame antisemitic barriers to enter medical school, made revolutionary breakthroughs in cancer treatment. However, his success came with a tragic cost: a public, performative Congressional hearing that unfairly destroyed his reputation and haunted him until his death. Through Less Radical, Dr. Wentworth brings listeners into operating rooms, the halls of Congress, and research labs to explore Fisher’s profound impact on breast cancer patients worldwide.

“If you or someone you know has had breast cancer, Bernie is a part of your story—and you’re a part of his,” says Dr. Wentworth.
