S5 E7: Patient Experience of General Practice; Weight Loss and Cancer; Testosterone and Fractures
Welcome back to the Hot Topics podcast from NB Medical with Dr Neal Tucker. In this episode, we consider the current state of general practice in the UK and what lessons the countries can learn from each other. We examine a new paper in the BJGP on how patients feel about general practice in Scotland since the introduction of the 2018 GP contract. Is it meeting patient and policymaker goals? In other research, we see what lessons a new paper in JAMA on weight loss and cancer association can tell us about a seemingly obvious connection, and from the NEJM what effect testosterone replacement for hypogonadism has on men's fracture risk.ReferencesBJGP Patient experiences of Scottish GP paperBJGP Family physician's moral distress when managing health inequalitiesJAMA Cancer diagnoses after weight lossNEJM Testosterone replacement for hypogonadism and fracture riskwww.nbmedical.com/podcast
