Doctors Updates Recensioni 

An excellent educational event with speakers from multiple medical, surgical and allied interest disciplines
Superb updates and networking with colleagues
Very well organised in a beautiful stimulating alpine environment which has a positive impact on physical and mental health at a time when working conditions in the NHS are so challenging
A good January refresher!
Thank you to all the organisers and speakers

From seasoned seniors with wise words from decades of experience to the enthusiastic innovators pushing the boundaries of what we know, this conference has it all. Along with the time to destress, chat with colleagues from across the country, and learn informal pearls of wisdom to help our day to day work, this conference has it all.
Hats off to you, Bernie.

Excellent conference, superbly organised in great facilities with a vast variety of lectures and workshops. Many learning points to take back to my practice to benefit patients. The opportunity to network with colleagues across the region is really valuable.

Regardless of the location, what always makes this meeting unique is being able to mix with colleagues from other specialties. It so much better reflects the jobs we all do every day and the opportunities to network and benchmark yourself against peers is invaluable. I would still go even if I didn’t love the mountains and all they have to offer in winter.

Best conference I have been on for years. Great, thought provoking talks from experts. Particularly enjoyed the ability to mix with other professionals outside of lectures. Feel motivated and enthusiastic to return to NHS work again with new ideas to implement.

Fantastic meeting,so well organized, interesting and relevant talks, runs on schedule. Great social opportunities too. It’s truly one of a kind. Well done Bernie, Will, Carl and team.

Excellent combination of superb CPD and wellbeing with interesting talks outside of medicine but relevant to it. Would thoroughly recommend

Fantastic organisation and excellent, engaging, clinically relevant topics.

Brilliant conference with great learning and networking opportunities that will make improvements to my practice

Fabulous meeting in a supportive environment from other NHS Senior Doctors

What a great way to combine CPD, networking and wellbeing. Thank you so much to the organisers for a thought provoking and relevent lecture programme. It was great to have the opportunity to unwind and catch up with old friends and colleagues between lectures. I'll be back.

My second time at Da Balaia.. excellent venue and lovely hosts. Brilliant balance of education and relaxation.

Fantastic conference. Great CPD: relevant and interesting discussions. Good networking.

A superb conference that combines relevant high quality presentations from speakers that know their stuff alongside a positive approach to well-being.
The organisers hold it all together with charm in a well-paced schedule.

Great conference to attend for an update! My first time there but would definitely take part as well. The combination of high profile speakers and friendly atmosphere open for everyone to share experiences and questions is really quite unique.

This has been the best update meeting I have ever been to. The topics were varied and speakers of a high standard. I’ve taken home many learning points and ideas that will change my practice. The exercise and wellbeing opportunities that go hand in hand with the conference make it an invaluable event.

I first attended this conference 24 years ago and it has gone from strength to strength. The speakers were excellent and the topics very useful providing a good update to anaesthesia in a relaxed environment. I appreciate a lot of effort goes into this conference and it clearly shows.

An excellent meeting with really good speakers on current topics in anaesthesia. A great location in the Algarve. Even more value is being with other anaesthetists for a few days in a relaxing environment. Thank you.

This was my first time at doctors updates. It was an excellent and interesting course. The topics were relevant and informative and generated many interesting discussions. The sessions on well being were fantastic. Generally we felt reinvigorated and enthused with many thoughts about improving my practice and lifestyle. Thank you
