Free menopause webinar added to NASGP’s free education series

GPs can learn about best practice and new research about the menopause during a free lunchtime webinar.

The next event in NASGP’s series follows a successful launch event on Thursday 7 April. Twenty-two GPs attended a talk by Dr Emma Green, a medicolegal advisor for Medical Protection, about managing risk as a GP locum.

On Thursday 5 May menopause specialist GP Dr Tina Peers will provide clinical advice on the subject for a sessional GP audience on management of the menopause: symptoms, definitions, effects on women’s health, treatments and (if time) primary ovarian insufficiency (POI) in GP.

Join our free three-month free trial and be the first to hear about events like this one.

Since qualifying at Guys’ Hospital London in 1983, Dr Peers has developed her skills and knowledge in women’s health, first working as a GP in Surrey before becoming a consultant in contraception and reproductive health in 1996 and leading these services in Surrey until 2018. In 2019, Dr Peers established The Menopause Consultancy, a specialist menopause and women’s health clinic that provides evidence-based care. Since the outbreak of Covid-19, Dr Peers treated patients with long Covid, using expertise in histamine intolerance and mast cell activation syndrome to inform treatment plans.

You can add your own questions for Dr Peers during the session.

Dr Richard Fieldhouse, NASGP chair, said: “It was great to see so many colleagues at our first event, and really looking forward to this becoming a regular feature, as well as thinking ahead already to this next event. I’ve attended several of Tina’s talks to GP locums in the past, and have always come away a little more knowledgeable and a lot wiser.”

GPs can attend on Thursday 5 May 2022 at 1pm by signing up for email updates using the form below.

"As a newly-qualified CCT and a GP moving to a new region post-CCT, I found LocumDeck and the NASGP to be very helpful. LocumDeck has been useful: Ali Lewis helped me to set myself up, get in touch with practices and book sessions, and also helped me chase payments. The NASGP itself, providing peer support and advice, has also been very good. I would certainly encourage my colleagues to join."

Dr Smita Sharma, GP, Hertfordshire
