WELCOME!

You are invited to join us for this informative, collegial, and practical symposium, designed with your needs in mind. Don’t miss this excellent opportunity to learn, connect, and refresh! 

The 2021 Symposium agenda is structured around Cancer to address risk assessment and collaborative care for breast, prostate, GI, and hematologic cancers. The agenda also addresses several other common challenges in Family Medicine, including current approaches to prevention, diagnosis and management of common complaints related to dermatology, EKG, acute eye conditions, missed fractures, and acute pediatric conditions.

Interactive formats will enhance your learning experience, through case-based polling, facilitated discussions about practice barriers, and ample time for open Q&A.

This 1.5 day virtual live course addresses Family Medicine’s broad scope of practice with 13 topics that address common challenges in clinical care, and includes an opportunity to support resident scholarly work during the virtual poster exhibit. Virtual networking opportunities invite you to meet new colleagues, reconnect with friends from other service areas, and return to practice with renewed confidence and inspiration.

Thank you and we look forward to enjoying the symposium together with you!
