In just one year we have come such a long way. From a General Practitioner workshop this time last year, where we presented our proposed course outcomes, to this.
We have partnered up with Primary Health Tasmania to get our GPs access to this learning about persistent pelvic pain and diseases such as endometriosis. Our GPs are so keen to know more, that all the scholarships are running out the door! More places have been offered due to demand, and they are going too!! "This is just so incredible." says Dr Emily Ware, women's health GP who leads the learning on the course. GPs are obviously keen to do our Vagenius course which covers the complex array of symptoms that can be presented at a first consult by a patient, and all the things they may need to know after that to work alongside their patient. Girls, women and those assigned female at birth wait an average of 6.5 years in Australia, to be diagnosed with endometriosis. As this is endometriosis month - what a way to start Tasmania!!
