About this Event
Hand and wrist complaints are among the most frequent presentations in primary care, often proving diagnostic challenges for even experienced clinicians. This session, led by Miss Caroline Cheadle, provides a specialist’s deep dive into the "essential" list of hand pathologies.
Miss Cheadle will move beyond basic anatomy to focus on clinical pearls for diagnosis, the latest evidence-based non-surgical interventions, and clear markers for when surgical referral is the optimal path for the patient.
