These two chat about everything from surviving surgical training and managing stress to managing the joys and challenges of parenting. It’s all on the table.

Laughs, teariness and banter included.

Food allergies are on the rise, but there are some things you can do to try and reduce the risk of them developing in your kids.

From eating a variety of food during pregnancy - yes including nuts if you're not allergic yourself - to avoiding food-based skin products like almond oil on your infant. And it's so important that you introduce a range of foods, bit by bit, when your bub starts eating solids.

Dr Nelu Simonsz (pediatrician and mother of 3) joins Dr Preeya to share a pile of practical golden nuggets when it comes to preventing food allergies, along with how to manage them (and the stress) if they do develop.

All those FAQs on “do we need a skin prick test?” “is this red skin around the mouth a food allergy reaction?” answered with plenty of singing and giggles on the way.

How do GP's navigate dozens of patients and countless conditions with so little time? There's an art to it and today we're letting you in on our secrets.

My dear friend and mentor Dr Andy Morgan taught me so much as a medical educator. He's here to explain why the first minute of a consult is the most important, why your GP might involve you in the decision making, and how we feel as clinicians when we don't have all of the answers.

This episode will give you a new perspective on what happens in the consulting room (and might give you an idea of what you should be looking for in your GP!)
