We chat to Dr Tessa Lewis - Tessa is a GP in Blaenavon, Wales and a Therapeutics and Medical Advisor. As well as being the author of the renowned ‘NO-TEARS’ medication review framework (https://www.bmj.com/content/329/7463/434) Tessa was awarded the ‘Distinguished Contribution to NICE Award’ for her contribution to its work.
Our micro-discussion focuses on the paper ‘potentially inappropriate prescribing of drugs in primary care’ from the British Journal of General Practice (https://bjgp.org/content/early/2021/05/04/BJGP.2020.0871). We talk again about NICE, the need to make things simpler - not simplistic - as well as stand-up paddleboarding, the impact of noise and the potential role of magic mushrooms in managing depression.
As with all our guests we ask Tessa to pick her ‘Desert Island Drug’, a career defining anthem and a book that has influenced her work.
