Survivors’ Debate: The Past Decade in Ovarian Cancer Conclusions:“Acknowledging isolated examples, we have been unsuccessful in truly„hearing‟ and reacting in a timely manner to the Patients‟ Voices in healthcareand in particular to cancer care. The mechanisms and functions of the Patients‟Voices have been researched and discussed widely in medical circles, but stillin fact, the ultimate decisions are subject to many biases, which ultimately donot reflect the intellect, integrity, nor, the pertinent issues known withinconsumer/(e)patient communities.The biases are reflections of matters of clinical research interpretations which may andoften do not address the concerns living and surviving with and ultimately dying withovarian cancer. …and yet – as evidenced by the survey - patients still have thehighest regard and respect for their healthcare providers. 11

….Furthermore, research focused on cancer e-communities has indicatedthat cancer patients‟ communications are alive, well, vibrant and include ahigh degree of clinically correct opinions and experiences. These e-communities of cancer patients speak to the issues beyond politics,perceived boundaries, ego and the bureaucracies – historical barriers.”The intention of the Ovarian Cancer Survivors‟ Debate(s) was to bring thesebehind-the-behind-the-scenes discussions to open and transparent public forums. 12
