This educational event was absolutely packed with delegates and Clinical content in relation to Diabetes. The importance of weight loss , second line management after metformin, the newer oral hypoglycaemics, and very importantly , the team approach to Diabetic care is covered

The knowledge  content delivered by the  diabetic specialist team members  ie the Specialist Nurses, Dietician and Podiatrist , was a reminder as to how extremely specialised they are, their extensive impressive knowledge and the importance of using their services early on and appropriately.

Dr.Sand's pre recorded video lecture  on telephone/ e-consultations offered an interesting,efficient alternative to accessing expert clinical Diabetic advice in a way more convenient for patients and preventing the need to refer to secondary care.
