We’re coming to Edinburgh for our next Get-Together! These are our in-person conference style events where you get to hear from incredible speakers and meet others affected by pituitary conditions. We can’t wait to bring you all together in Scotland!
We’ll have brilliant talks from medical professionals, and you’ll also have the opportunity to meet trustees, staff and members of The Pituitary Foundation. The day will have plenty of opportunities to meet other people impacted by pituitary conditions, to learn from one another and provide peer support.
