Description

70% of GPs rated this lecture as excellent

In this Healthed lecture, Professor Ernest Somerville explains that there still exist a number of grey areas – grey areas that can be challenging, complicated or just confusing. Professor Somerville will detail some of these difficult areas and provide practical advice on issues such as where there’s a history of provoked seizures (as opposed to unprovoked seizures), the different rules for commercial vs private licences, dealing with unreliable patients and patients who pressure the doctor to claim they are fit to drive when their history would suggest otherwise.
