MENOPAUSE SUPPORT GROUP FOR PRESCRIBING CLINICIANS IN SOMERSET - These will be informal drop-in sessions where you can ask Dr Juliet Balfour any general questions about managing the perimenopause and menopause. Dr Balfour is a British Menopause Society recognised menopause specialist and trainer and runs the Somerset NHS Menopause Service. She is also on the BMS Medical Advisory Council. The first session is from 1.30 - 2.30pm on Thursday 27th July and will hopefully become a regular event to help you manage your menopausal patients (and your own symptoms if relevant). Teams link is here .
