Description

Professor David Hunter is a leading rheumatologist and researcher working at the University of Sydney. David has over 350 publications in rheumatology and has co-authored several books providing self-management strategies for patients with osteoarthritis. In this podcast, we discuss:

• Treatments of OA, what does and doesn’t work
• How to take a detailed history and examination from a patient with OA
• Cornerstones of patient care: behavioral change, self management and weight loss
• Weight loss strategies and how to maintain it
• Physiology behind how exercise improves symptoms
• Pharmacological and surgical treatments for OA

David caught up with Karim Khan after the 2017 Australasian College of Sport and Exercise Physicians (ACSEP) conference in the Gold Coast. The next event is February 2018 and is sure to be a huge success! http://ow.ly/t20j3093yZq
