Joining us on Wednesday 21st May, 19:30-20:00, for our next In Conversation is Dr Richard Russell, a man of many respiratory interested hats!

As we know, in many cases patients are still not being prescribed the right medications, and unless we make change now, this same conversation will continue to be had for years to come.

Both Katherine and Richard share an immense passion about how patients should be cared for, and during this In Conversation they will break the inhaler inertia and talk about how we can move away from the outdated respiratory care that continues to be provided.
