September 2021 - Case of the Month
A 24-year-old woman presented with a several year history of evolving 'lumps' especially on the central chest. The lady had mild facial acne and was otherwise well.
Sadly there is no September case of the month :-(
However, I do have a good reason. I am currently working on a significant update to the website, and in particular the development of 'Quick Desktop Guidelines'. These guidelines are ideal for the busy GP (and other Primary Care Health Professionals) who during a busy consultation do not have time to trawl through a clinical chapter in detail. The guidelines will cover 30 common conditions and will be found on the same page.
The update will go live within the next 2 weeks, please consider updating your local GP colleagues and CCGs about the update, especially the desktop guidance, which have the potential to both improve patient care and also reduce referrals.
Best wishes
