Medically unexplained symptoms

A renowned specialist, Dr. Tahir’s special interests are in the field of General Adult Psychiatry, Consultation-Liaison Psychiatry, and Old Age Psychiatry.
According to BJGP, MUS costs the UK economy over £ 14 billion per annum and it poses a significant challenge for primary care clinicians. MUS are inconsistently recognized, diagnosed, and managed in primary care.
This talk would cover the burden of the condition, recognition, classification, and guidance on the management of this challenging condition which can account for up to 45 % of all general practice consultations. This talk would include case-based scenarios and you would have the opportunity of asking further questions.
