Additionally, patients frequently report unmet needs for dietary counselling. There is limited data on oncologists\u2019 knowledge and attitudes towards this evidence and whether it influences their clinical practice.\n                    <jats:bold>Methods:<\/jats:bold>\n                    A 25-question survey was distributed to oncology professionals with 150 evaluable responses. The survey assessed respondents\u2019 demographics, personal dietary choices, knowledge of dietary guidelines, and practice behaviors. Responses were analyzed using descriptive statistics and Fisher\u2019s exact and Pearson\u2019s Chi-squared tests.\n                    <jats:bold>Results:<\/jats:bold>\n                    Most respondents considered dietary choices important for cancer risk reduction (77.4%), during treatment (66.7%) and for survivorship (76.6%), with 23.3% referring all patients to a dietitian. Barriers to implementing dietary counselling included lack of time (66.7%) or knowledge (54%), or resources (54.7%) or lack of reimbursement (22%). Oncologists following plant-based dietary patterns were more likely to value dietary counselling, engage in self-directed learning, and perceive diet as relevant throughout the cancer care continuum.\n                    <jats:bold>Conclusions:<\/jats:bold>\n                    Despite established dietary guidance, significant gaps in training and practice persist. Enhancing nutrition education, increasing access to resources, consistent reimbursement of dietitian appointments, and generating robust clinical evidence are essential to support oncologists.\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/15598276251414349","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,1,13]],"date-time":"2026-01-13T02:19:26Z","timestamp":1768270766000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Oncologists Knowledge and Attitudes Towards Providing Dietary Guidance to Patients With Cancer"],"prefix":"10.1177","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-6173-3326","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Shireen","family":"Kassam","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Haematology, King\u2019s College London"},{"name":"Faculty of Health and Wellbeing, University of Winchester"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Zahra","family":"Kassam","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Stronach Regional Cancer Centre"},{"name":"University of Toronto"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"David","family":"Nemirovsky","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Andriy","family":"Derkach","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Susan","family":"Chimonas","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Cynthia","family":"Thomson","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Health Promotion Sciences, University of Arizona Cancer Center (UACC)"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Urvi A.","family":"Shah","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,1,12]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_3_5_2_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/jnci\/66.6.1192"},{"key":"e_1_3_5_3_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/jnci\/djv044"},{"key":"e_1_3_5_4_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3322\/caac.21858"},{"key":"e_1_3_5_5_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0140-6736(19)30041-8"},{"key":"e_1_3_5_6_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1001\/jamaoncol.2022.1769"},{"key":"e_1_3_5_7_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jaccao.2021.09.016"},{"key":"e_1_3_5_8_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1001\/jama.2020.23130"},{"key":"e_1_3_5_9_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/jn\/nxz268"},{"key":"e_1_3_5_10_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3322\/caac.21591"},{"key":"e_1_3_5_11_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3322\/caac.21719"},{"key":"e_1_3_5_12_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1038\/s41408-022-00666-w"},{"key":"e_1_3_5_13_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.clnesp.2020.10.023"},{"key":"e_1_3_5_14_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S2542-5196(19)30171-8"},{"key":"e_1_3_5_15_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/jhn.12972"},{"key":"e_1_3_5_16_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1200\/JOP.19.00124"},{"key":"e_1_3_5_17_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/ecc.12529"},{"issue":"5","key":"e_1_3_5_18_2","first-page":"2435","article-title":"The provision of nutritional advice and care for cancer patients: a UK national survey of healthcare professionals","volume":"29","author":"Murphy JL","year":"2021","unstructured":"Murphy JL, Munir F, Davey F, et al.
