English term
the former/the later
English to French
Medical
For discussion about the processes of change, participants will likely have very different needs. (Participants will likely range from those who see the patient once in consultation to others who will see the patient multiple times in a Diabetes clinic).
Hopefully, the former will be able to start the process and the family MD can then take over while the later will be more involved in the process.

ce premier groupe/ce dernier
Obviously it's tricky to say le premier, le dernier or some such thing as the first case is plural. The second case here is clearly singular (the GP/family MD)

"ceux-là" se rapporte aux premières personnes citées, le suffixe "là" évoquant l'élément le plus éloigné dans la phrase ; "celui-ci" ou "ceux-ci" reflète toujours l'élément le plus proche.

ce premier groupe..........tandis que le second
Cette traduction me semble la plus claire en ce qu'elle renvoie a ce partage qui se dessine entre les praticiens et le suivi de leurs patients
