Dr Georgia Rigas discusses considerations and interventions for weight management, with a focus on the use of very low energy diets (VLEDs), and their combined usage with anti-obesity medications.  
Dr Rigas will also talk about broaching the subject of weight with patients, as well as the physiological response to weight loss by the body.

While lockdowns and mandatory isolation have become a distant memory, how can we best protect our at-risk patients from this winter's double-whammy - influenza and covid?
As we face our second year post-covid, we need to know what is predicted for this year's flu season, as well as what is happening in terms of the ongoing covid pandemic. In this presentation, infectious diseases expert Professor Robert Booy, and GP Dr Sarah Chu, will provide an update on what we can expect in the winter of 2023 - what we have learned from the northern hemisphere experience, who is most at-risk and, most importantly what the available options are to help prevent these infections, and how do we choose between them.

The impact of aortic stenosis is underestimated, as is its prevalence.
Only a minority of patients with treatable aortic stenosis are being detected in primary care, meaning that many patients are needlessly experiencing symptoms and potential health risks associated with this valvular condition.  Now that we have ready access to a definitive and effective treatment for aortic sclerosis, in the form of the Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation (TAVI), GPs are being encouraged to 'auscultate and investigate' every adult patient to make the diagnosis.
