Course Feedback :

“I found the recap on osteoarthritis particularly useful especially in terms of monitoring response to treatment.

“Though I’m new of the LOAD pain assessment tool, I feel we will now use it more routinely in practice

“The content of the Mini Series will help me very much in my work in practice. It will give me confidence to approach cases in a logical way and reach a working diagnosis and treatment plan, whilst recognising where specialist advice and referral is appropriate.
