Show Notes

I have a fascinating discussion with Professor Stephen Atwood, a surgeon and honorary professor at Durham university, about Eosinophilic oesophagitis (EoE), an important cause of dysphagia.  Rarely do I get to speak to someone who has first identified a disease, however this is exactly what Professor Attwood did in the 1980s, and he discusses how this discovery came about, and brings us up to speed on the risk factors for the condition, the causes of the disease, how the patient may present and how to manage the patient with EoE, including the latest treatment orodispersible steroid treatment Jorveza.
