Gastroenterology | One Day Essentials | REWIND

This is a recording of a live conference that took place on 4 November 2025. This recording will be available to view until 20 August 2026.

Gastroenterology is one of the major medical specialties and accounts for 10% of all appointments in primary care. The British Society of Gastroenterologists (BSG) estimate that 90% of patients with gastrointestinal (GI) disorders are managed in primary care. 

The aims of this conference are to update delegates on the emerging issues, such as the new Faecal Immunochemical Test guidelines and the management of metabolic dysfunction–associated steatotic liver disease (the new name for NAFLD), as well as the more common presentations of GI conditions like dyspepsia, functional bowel disorders and iron deficiency anaemia. 

By the end of the day, you will have more confidence in investigating and managing patients presenting with GI and liver problems, which will improve patient care, result in less referrals to gastroenterology services and benefit service issues around the provision of endoscopy.

 

Learning objectives:

  • How to manage patients with abnormal liver blood tests in primary care
  • Provide updates on Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease 
  • Provide updates on how to assess and manage patients presenting with lower and upper GI symptoms 
  • Provide updates on neuroendocrine tumours 

Topics: 

  • Liver disease 
  • Gastroesophageal reflux
  • Lower and upper GI symptoms
  • Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS)
  • Neuroendocrine tumours (NETS) 

Conference chair:

Dr Mark Follows, GPwER gastroenterology
