Ep 152 – Rethinking HIV: from testing to transformation


Listen Later

What if one of the most misunderstood diagnoses of the past is now one of the most manageable chronic conditions? How can GPs play a pivotal role in tackling stigma, increasing testing and improving outcomes for people living with HIV?

Dr James Waldron is joined by Dr Grace Bottoni (HIV and Hepatitis C GP Champion, Lewisham) for the first episode in an insightful series that dives into the evolving landscape of HIV care. Together, they will explore a range of topics with experts in the field. In this episode, they talk with Dr Mel Rosenvinge (Consultant HIV Specialist, Lewisham and Greenwich NHS Trust) about what HIV is, how far treatments have come and the critical role of early diagnosis. From reducing stigma to understanding the life-changing impact of "U=U" (undetectable equals untransmittable). This episode sets the foundation for the series, with future parts diving into what GPs can do to improve health outcomes and address broader medical issues for people living with HIV.
