Free Webinar: More STI Patients May Be Heading Your Way. Are You Up to Date on the Guidelines?

With incidence of sexually transmitted infection at all-time highs in the United States, you may have already noticed an increase in patients presenting with symptoms concerning for gonorrhea, syphilis, or other STIs. And if you haven’t, it’s likely you will. Historically, patients have found urgent care to be an ideal setting for concerns they may be hesitant to raise with their “regular” healthcare provider. Further, as JUCM and JUCM News readers know, many patients now forego a traditional primary care provider relationship all together in favor of episodic care. At the same time, treatment options become more complex all the time. If you and your team are not up on the current guidelines, you may not be prepared to provide optimal care. So, plan on attending a free, live webinar presented by JUCM and sponsored by Visby on Wednesday, June 7, 2 to 3 pm, Eastern. Ina Park, MD will lead the discussion and remain online after her presentation for a live Q&A session. To learn more or to register, click here.
