A Message from the Symposium Co-chairs and Planning Committee

Please join us for the 2021 Jon A. Kaswick, MD Urology Virtual Symposium featuring an exceptional two-day program packed with distinguished guest lecturers. The planning committee has arranged a series of virtual presentations designed to provide relevant, up-to-date information that strive to address your clinical and educational goals.

Benefits of attending 2021 Urology Symposium:

Evaluation and management of male LUTS
Newest laser and minimally invasive surgical options for treating BPH
Future of telehealth and its application in Urologic practice
Prostate Cancer Surveillance and use of biomarkers and MRI and nuclear imaging
Management of both large and small renal masses in the era of Immunotherapy
Update on Kaiser Permanente’s Surgical Quality and Volume Initiative

Our goal is to provide the latest Urologic data and evidence that will advance your knowledge and understanding of these disease processes and help integrate this into your daily practice.

The virtual symposium will provide an opportunity for our Kaiser Permanente Urology community to reconnect, network, and collaborate during this two-day virtual event.

Given the events of the past year that have limited our ability to meet in person, we look forward to having an opportunity to strengthen our Kaiser Permanente Urology community with comradery, knowledge, and expertise.

We warmly encourage you to attend and be a part of this fantastic program!

Sincerely,
Stacey C. Carter, MD and Mehrdad Alemozaffar, MD
