[QUOTE="Fallgal, post: 717195, member: 92569"] Hi. I have only lived in the UK for four years and had not needed to use the doctor's surgery very much before being diagnosed as a T2. Could someone please tell me: 1. What a "consultant" is in regards to the NHS? Is it just another name for a doctor or GP? 2. What is a DSN? Is that the same as a "diabetic nurse"? 3. The nurse I see has a "diploma in diabetes". Is he a DSN? 4. What is a "registrar" in a doctor's surgery? (There are two doctors listed as "registrars" at my local surgery.) Thank you very much!
