INTERVIEW SCHEDULE *.

1	Spirituality is an important domain in the quality of life of many cancer patients. What do you think might be meant by the term spirituality in relation to your work with cancer patients?
2	Tell me about your views on discussing spirituality with patients who have metastatic disease.
3	If you wanted to discuss spiritual needs with a patient, how would you go about doing it? What would help you?
4	What would make it difficult?
5	Imagine you could give your younger self tips as you start out in medical practice about discussing these issues with your patients. What advice would you give yourself?
6	We’re just about finished—is there anything else you would like to add?

* These are the initial questions used in semi-structured interviews which were adapted as required to develop themes identified during the study analysis. After the theme of stigma was identified, participants were asked directly whether they thought there was stigma associated with spiritual discussions in healthcare.
