  • The General Practitioner - The Dementia / Doctor Fog

    Today Heckle & Jeckle meet three doctors leading the light to help other Gp's find there way back to their patients through the dementia fog!

    General practitioners: Dr Hilton Koppe, Dr Marita Long & Dr Steph Daly speak candidly and with a healthy dose of humour together with Heckle & Jeckle about their pursuit to know more about dementia. We discovered a surprising and shocking reality that Gp's receive as little as two hours of training about dementia!!
    Heckle & Jeckle share more of their experiences with the doctors in the hope of contributing a greater understanding of Dementia as an umbrella term for many types of Neuro degenerative diseases.
    Again, Heckle & Jeckle relate to each other through a shared purpose, meaning and laughter.
    General Practitioners Dr Hilton Koppe, Dr Marita Long & Dr Steph Daly are members of Dementia Training Australia’s GP Clinical Education Group. They are the hosts of Dementia in Practice, an excellent new series of podcasts released by Dementia Training Australia (DTA).
    We also had a surprise cameo visit with Professor Andrew Robinson, Professor of Aged Care Nursing, Co-director, Wicking Dementia Research and Education Centre, University of Tasmania.
