Cardiovascular disease, diabetes and all their various clinical manifestations remain one of the most important and frequent seen disease categories in everyday medical practice. Understanding your patients risk of a future cardiovascular event and how we as clinicans can reduce that risk is important to the future well being of our patients. This year we focus on how the changes in our environment such as pollution impact on CV disease and what you can do about it in your practice
Each year our annual conference brings together professionals, educators, students and institutions from a variety of healthcare sectors, to share, collaborate and network.
