Join us today as we discuss Iron Deficiency Anemia - a common, yet complex disorder that differs in management between healthy individuals and patients with other co-morbidities such as congestive cardiac failure, or chronic kidney disease.

We are fortunate to have with us Dr Esmeralda Teo, Consultant Haematologist with a special interest in Acute Leukemia and Cancer Survivorship.

We discuss the approach to patients with anemia, how to interpret an iron panel, and the various treatment options available for them!
