Hot Topics GP Update Spring-Summer 2019 Booklet

Obesity, and particularly the new medications to manage it, are being talked about everywhere. As a GP, this can potentially feel like an area of medicine we haven’t been taught about at all and consultations can feel difficult. If we are soon to be asked to prescribe the medications, do you feel ready to do so? Probably not. The updated NB Medical Guide to Managing Obesity and Overweight in Primary Care is a half-day, evidence-based course that will enable you to feel confident in having the discussions around obesity and you will learn about the rapidly evolving science of obesity medicine. We will learn about these new medications to manage obesity, in a way that is useful and practical for us in primary care.

The Hot Topics GP Update course is the original one-day course to update GPs with the latest developments in the literature and to serve as a platform for CPD and help to deliver better patient care. The course revolves around short, engaging presentations that merge recent clinical evidence with real-life clinical scenarios.
