Dr Ayan Panja, GP at the Maltings Surgery in St Albans is running an RCGP accredited course in Lifestyle Medicine. This has been of interest to several local GPs over the past year. The term is a real buzzword in primary care and effective in dealing with a lot of non-communicable illness and mystery symptoms by getting to the root cause using a unique framework. Ayan and two other content experts (including Dr Rangan Chatterjee) host the course this time in Manchester to give primary care clinicians useable tools to apply from Monday morning.

The course is on Saturday May 18th 2019.
Benefits include:
- Reducing referrals
- Reducing prescribing costs
- Getting to the root cause of non-communicable symptoms
- 6 CPD points
Website and tickets:

I have been interested in the concept of lifestyle medicine for years. I have looked at this with patients and recommended it but never been quite sure if I am doing it right…..The course provided and easy framework to use as well as the evidence to back it all up. Brilliant and inspiring day.
