About Us

Dr Jam Kothari (@myeloma_medic) is a myeloma specialist, with over 10 years' experience as a consultant, with an NHS practice based in Oxford, UK. He graduated with a first-class honours degree in Medical Sciences at the University of Cambridge, before completing his medical training at the University of Oxford.

He undertook his haematology training at University College Hospital London (UCLH), which included an advanced fellowship on the comprehensive treatment of myeloma and associated conditions. He is myeloma lead doctor for Oxford University Hospitals and the surrounding areas, co-ordinating myeloma care for a population of 2.5 million people – with the primary responsibilities being developing new protocols, being a point of contact for complex case discussions and co-ordinating clinical trials.

He manages patients on complex cellular treatments, including CAR-T therapy. His approach is deeply focused on patient-centred care, ensuring that individuals have the time and information necessary to be fully engaged in the decision-making process regarding their treatment. He has felt that a podcast series would very much enable and empower people affected by myeloma to feel connected to their journey with this condition.
