Master Clinicians Lecture Series - Learn Online Now
Chronic abdominal and pelvic symptoms in women are often difficult to diagnose for the outpatient clinician. Oftentimes, it results in unnecessary testing, over imaging, multiple specialty referrals and a poor patient experience. Learn from our OBGYN Master Clinicians Mentor to ask the right questions, order the right test and identify the red flags that are present in these challenging cases.
