Some comments from the last conference:

"This was a great conference. Topics were interesting and very practice relevant. The workshops were very helpful and relevant to improving my practice. As a newly graduated PA, this conference was particularly helpful to give me practical ways to manage my patients."
Marchell Thurow, PA-C – Yankton, SD

"Great conference with excellent speakers. Very proud to be a PA-C this week. Thank you. I'll come again."
Allegra DeMott, PA-C – Downey, CA

"This has become my favorite conference because it remains non - political. Has excellent CME and speakers. Excellent diverse workshops and most of all because of the attendees. The people make the conference. Kudos to an excellent staff who are truly part of the overall team and who demonstrate all of the positive aspects of being cheerful servants in the cause of its members".
Ana Zadrima, PA-C – Bronx, NY
