  • Summary

  • Dr Emma Ryan, a GP in South East London and the Royal College of GPs clinical champion for gambling harms, explains the role general practice can play in tackling problem gambling and gambling harms.


    In this conversation Emma talks about the impact problem gambling can have on individuals and their families, recommendations from NICE’s new guidance on gambling harms and why GPs should ask patients about their gambling habits.


    She also talks about the support available for patients, a new educational resource on gambling that she’s developed for the RCGP, and what support practices themselves can provide to patients.


    This episode was presented by GPonline editor Emma Bower. It was produced by Czarina Deen.
