Ep 247 The Injector Diaries (Chapter 19) | April Harrison

Episode 247 hosts April Harrison (Physician Assistant based in Texas, USA)

April joins us in the 19th Chapter of our series called 'The Injector Diaries'. These episodes feature in depth conversations, stories and experiences from injectors around the globe.

Each injector brings their own unique take on things and we showcase every level of type of injector, from newbies to masters. We'll explore how and why they chose to inject, why they favour using certain products, look under the hoods of their clinics and aim to inspire our injector listeners.
