A problem shared is a problem halved goes the old expression – but what about medical appointments? Could sharing your health consultation with others lead to better outcomes for chronic disease, especially in remote and regional Australia?

Researchers at Southern Cross University are the first in Australia trialling the concept of Shared Medical Appointments, starting in remote communities with overwhelming success.

Lead investigator, Associate Professor John Stevens, discusses this new mode of health appointments, the rise of lifestyle medicine and how all health practitioners can benefit.

The musical introduction to this podcast is written and performed by Alako Myles.
