Since beginning his training as a GP, Dr Tosin has developed a keen interest in lifestyle medicine.  Dr Tosin discusses menopause education for GPs and how much he learnt from Dr Newson's 'Confidence in the Menopause' online education programme with FourteenFish. He feels like it should be renamed the “epiphany video”!
