This year, please note the FREE Face to Face Day will launch this year’s series – and what a day it promises to be.
We will return to the PARKROYAL Parramatta on Saturday, September 14 where you can enjoy interactive sessions and case studies around an array of management issues related to diabetes, delivered by an expert faculty of Endocrinologists, General Practitioners and diabetes health professionals.
Enjoy the opportunity of networking with colleagues and learn from a faculty of more than 25 expert health professionals from across NSW, at no cost to you.
On the day, learn more from our pharmaceutical sponsors and partners and what they have to offer from their information booths at the one day of face-to-face sessions.
Virtual: This is then followed by a high quality and comprehensive virtual program over 7 weeks featuring expert guest speakers, interactive case studies and panel discussions for each evening, delivered by about 50 highly-qualified faculty from across NSW who will keep you right up-to-date with the management of type 2 diabetes.
The evenings will include short and interactive case discussion or question and answer sessions.
WSD Masterclass co-ordinator and Endocrine registrar Dr Tsui Yue Ong said diabetes is a global issue that impacts people of all races and countries.
“Recognising and managing diabetes early is crucial,” Dr Ong said. “It can prevent or delay the onset of these complications, significantly enhancing the quality of life for our patients. Our meticulously curated themes, addressing various facets of diabetes and metabolic diseases, are designed to be both relevant and practical for general practice.
“These sessions will be delivered in a hybrid format, combining the convenience of virtual learning with the engagement of face-to-face interactions.”
