Grab your trainers, your dog lead, or your drink of choice-with ice- and join us for some free CPD as we have another relaxed round up of recent Red Whale primary care Pearls of wisdom.  In the second of two episodes this month, Fi and Nik discuss:

  • Hepatitis C: curable in more than 95% of affected individuals. It’s recently been the WHO World Hepatitis Day, so what better time to re-share our article on Hepatitis C? It has been a popular and impactful topic over the past 18 months on our update courses.
