Diabetes
Pre-Recorded

The Diabetes for Primary Care webinar is ideal for all GPs, practice nurses and pharmacists needing an update in diabetes, and not just for GPs with a special interest. As diabetes becomes ever more common and at the same time the management becomes more complex, this webinar aims to help break down all of the research into bite-size topics.
