Presented by:

Peter Skaff, MD, FAAN | Director of Neurodiagnostics | Dignity Health Neurological Institute

Would you like to be able to better manage patients that present with peripheral neuropathy in the primary care setting but don't know where to start? The interprofessional care team of Physicians, APP’s and Nurses are invited to attend this one hour live-streamed education. Be prepared to test your peripheral nerve dysfunction management skills and strategies by exploring what treatment options are now available to your patients.

Upon completion of this educational activity, the learners should be able to order the appropriate workup and manage peripheral neuropathy within the primary care setting until they can be seen by a neurologist. We hope you leave prepared and confident to support your patients while they wait to be seen by Dr.Skaff or support them in tandem with his care.

To RSVP for the in-person option or for questions, please contact Mary Jane Amezcua at [email protected]
