There are a lot of important considerations that go into ensuring our veterans get the care and support they deserve. Just as every veteran has their own story about military service, each will require a tailored approach to treatment from their primary healthcare providers.

Join your host Dr Elissa Hatherly as she chats with Townsville GP and veteran, Dr Michael Clements about how to best care and advocate for veterans. Their conversation covers everything from navigating the Department of Veterans Affairs system, referrals, new claims, impairment assessments, and common conditions, to even what it means to be a veteran and how that influences the care you provide.

No matter your role in primary care, this episode is sure to provide you with useful tools and greater insight into how to better support your DVA patients.
