We will be joined by Professor Heidi Phillips talking us through her journey to becoming a Neurodiversity specialist GP, supporting neurodiverse patients in primary care and the importance of recognising neurodivergence in primary care.

She is founder and Chair of the British Association for Neurodiversity and is on the Clinical Advisory group to Wales Government for Neurodiversity.

About the event
This event is part of the St George’s University of London (SGUL) Primary Care Seminar series. We are a group of GP academics and medical students at SGUL.
The Primary Care Seminars are an initiative designed to showcase primary care (especially academic primary care) to medical students and other clinical students. Students and staff across institutions are welcome to attend.
We have chosen topical subject areas which are of interest to students and linked to the theme of The Future of Primary Care. This event specifically will focus on the topic of Neurodiversity in Primary Care.
Each session will be an hour long, delivered online via Teams and hosted by one of the primary care education team at SGUL.
It will typically comprise one or two speakers and the opportunity for students to ask questions in a moderated Q&A.
Sessions will be recorded so that those unable to join live will be able to watch at a later date.
