Do you find time management in General Practice a challenge?
We kick off this season with some episodes addressing the all-too-familiar problem of managing time in Primary Care, both within and outside of the consultation. In this episode Dr Munir Adam speaks to a GP who has a lot of good advice to share with us about how we can manage our time more efficiently.
SPECIAL THANKS to our guest speaker: Dr Ed Pooley; GP and author of the book Managing Time in Medicine.
