Introduction
This week we're looking at Lifestyle Medicine. What exactly is it, and how can it help GP's to support their patients? I'm speaking to Dr Ellen Fallows, a GP in North Hampshire. She also runs Video Group Clinic supporting people to make and sustain lifestyle changes for self-management of long-term conditions. In this conversation she explains what makes lifestyle medicine different to simply providing advice about healthy living. Also discusses some of the evidence that supports the use of this approach to help improve outcomes for patients.
