GP Education presentations

On 16 July 2010, GPs from around the country came to The Royal Marsden to hear expert speakers talk about upper and lower gastrointestinal cancer.

Copies of each speaker’s presentation slides are available below to download.

The event was also filmed, and videos of the day are now available to watch at Healthcare Republic, where GPs can also download a certificate to obtain CPD credits.
