Description

In this episode:

  • While gastric cancer is improving, GPs are the frontline and must reach out if they have concerns
  • Patients who don’t respond to PPI for abdominal pain or indigestion need investigating further, even young patients of 20 or 30-years-old
  • Mental health issues can develop both pre and post-surgery – they need to be addressed

 

Guest: Dr Mary Ann Johnson, Upper GI & General Surgeon

Host: Dr David Lim, GP and Medical Educator
