Red Whale Primary Care Pod

By: Red Whale
  • Summary

  • Welcome to the monthly Primary Care Pod from Red Whale – join GPs Nik Kendrew and Caroline Greene as each month they discuss a roundup of four key topics for primary care clinicians, which can also be found in our popular free Pearls .

    We look at the evidence, the guidelines and the media coverage and make learning together as a primary care community as relaxing and enjoyable as possible. We invite you to nominate your primary care heroes and share your “best intentions” stories. So, grab a cuppa or put on your trainers and head out for some fresh air whilst you enjoy this month’s podcast.

    We'd love to hear your feedback by email - podcast@redwhale.co.uk or leave us a voice message - https://www.speakpipe.com/RedWhalePrimaryCarePod
