Another fantastic Pinnacle® Study Club of Tampa Bay meeting in the books!

Thank you to everyone who joined us for our November gathering. It was wonderful seeing so many familiar faces come together for an evening of connection, learning, and professional growth!

We were especially excited to welcome back Dr. Debra Goff, who once again delivered an outstanding presentation. Her talk, “Rooted in Evidence: New Guidance on Antibiotics for Dental Procedures,” is a critically important subject in our field, and her evidence-based insights and practical recommendations were incredibly valuable for all in attendance. We’re so grateful for her expertise and the impact she brings to our club.

We’re already looking forward to our next meeting in January!

Wishing you all a very Happy and Healthy Holiday Season!

What an incredible evening it was at the Pinnacle® Study Club of Tampa Bay last night! Our October meeting brought together a fantastic group of members eager to learn and engage. We were fortunate to have Dr. Donald P. Lewis Jr. as our presenter, who delivered an outstanding session on the critical topic of "Employee Embezzlement and Fraud."

Dr. Lewis masterfully balanced humor with the seriousness of the subject, making complex issues more accessible and relatable for everyone in attendance. His insights into the prevalence of fraud in the workplace were eye-opening, yet he equipped us with practical tips and knowledge to recognize and combat such behaviors. It was a captivating discussion that left us all better informed and prepared to protect our organizations.

We are already looking forward to our November meeting, which will be our final gathering of the year. Details will be announced soon!
