About
Valiana Alves Teodoro is a clinician-researcher dedicated to improving the perioperative experience for women facing gynecologic cancer. Her work centers on the intersection of oncology, surgical care, and patient psychology, with a particular focus on mitigating the profound anxiety that accompanies a cancer diagnosis and major surgery. Her most impactful contribution is a landmark randomized clinical trial, "Impact of Preoperative Counseling and Education on Decreasing Anxiety in Patients With Gynecologic Tumors," which demonstrated that structured preoperative counseling significantly reduces patient distress. This study, already garnering 8 citations shortly after its 2024 publication, provides an evidence-based, low-cost intervention that can be readily integrated into standard oncology care. By moving beyond purely biomedical outcomes to address the emotional burden of treatment, Dr. Teodoro’s work exemplifies a holistic, patient-centered approach. Her findings offer a practical roadmap for clinicians seeking to improve quality of life from the moment of diagnosis, establishing her as a rising voice in gynecologic oncology and psycho-oncology.
