Early Onset Bowel Cancer and Challenging GI Cases
In-person 16 May, 8:15 AM - 1:00 PM (AWST)
Join us for a practical workshop focused on early onset bowel cancer, challenging presentations, and common diagnostic pitfalls in general practice. Through interactive case discussions, you’ll refine your approach to rectal bleeding, reflux, gluten sensitivity, functional disorders and IBD. The workshop will also explore the emerging evidence around the role of the gut microbiome and provide GPs with practical strategies to support and guide their patients.
Presented by Sir Charles Gairdner Hospital's Gastroenterologist Consultant Dr Nabil Saddique; Ele Stojanoska, Director, Dietetic Gut Clinic; and specialist GP Dr Cory Lei.
Proudly supported by Dr Falk Pharma
