Video: Infertility update for GPs – Prof Robert Winston

Professor Robert Winston presented the NASGP’s May free lunchtime webinar, an infertility update for GPs.

NASGP’s webinar took place on Thursday 4 May from 1-1.45pm.

Prof Winston is currently Professor of Science and Society at Imperial College London. He has over 300 scientific publications about human reproduction and the early stages of pregnancy to his name. He is Chairman of the Genesis Research Trust, a charity which funds high quality research into women’s and babies’ health.

He is a well-established communicator of science to all age groups, both as a BAFTA-winning broadcaster and an author of over 20 titles, as well as a peer in the House of Lords and an Arsenal fan.

NASGP has now been running free lunchtime clinical talks for sessional GPs for over a year with topics covering:

  • Risk management for GP locums.
  • Menopause in general practice.
  • Skin cancer in general practice.
  • Bowel cancer in general practice.
  • GP mental health.
  • Brain tumours, presentations and diagnosis.
  • Solution-focused approaches for GPs.
  • Ovarian cancer – an update for GPs.
  • Improv skills for GPs.
  • IBD: what do GPs need to know?
  • Medicolegal pitfalls for GP locums.
  • GP update: endometriosis.

Many of the talks are also available to GPs via NASGP’s YouTube channel, where they are curated into a playlist for ease of reference.

"I am so glad and grateful for being a member of NASGP's BOB Locum Chambers. I started with them in a critical period of my career as I was a newly-qualified GP, looking for work in a new area. NASGP chair Dr Richard Fieldhouse and Membership Support Manager Ali Lewis's help was a godsend. They introduced me to locum work in a friendly and kind manner, provided valuable support and excellent service through the ever-improving LocumDeck and NASGP website. NASGP also helped me funnelling down all the job offers I received through my locum work until I recently agreed for a salaried position in a GP practice that I love working at. "

"I have been a member of the NASGP for the past nine years and have found the advice and support offered invaluable. NASGP passionately champions for safe and fair working conditions for locums, which is crucial in an age of increasing medical litigation.

LocumDeck is a must for every locum who just wants to get on with the job that they were trained to do."
