Plan to Attend! October 18-20, 2018 at the Hilton Atlanta
As the last AOAO educational activity in this CME cycle, the 2018 Annual Meeting promises quality education, the latest in orthopedic research and fun social events. The meeting will be held simultaneously with the American College of Osteopathic Surgeons. This will be a great opportunity to catch up with your general surgery colleagues.
Education
- Business and practice related topics
- Case discussions
- New surgical techniques
Don’t miss the CO*RE REMS session on Pain Management and Opioids (Thursday morning). Karen Zupko will offer two different sessions on referral building and how to stay in private practice.
