Join Fanis and Ana for an evening about tremors, twitches, other movement disorders and their imitators. Do you know what is benign, what is not, what needs further investigations, what needs emergency treatment and when to refer. We will present also our recently launched Tremor Clinic, a unique clinic along the country, where we analyse further tremors using conscious electrodiagnostics and modern technology.
During the CPD event, SCVS will be taking pictures and video footage. If you wish not to be included, please notify a member of staff.
