We are two months away from our annual sports medicine conference! We are returning to a fully in-person course to facilitate an interactive learning environment. Our various speakers will highlight how a multidisciplinary approach to care can help the athlete in every patient. From basic to advanced topics, our range of workshops will allow you to tailor the course to your preferences. If you can’t join us for all three days, we do have a Saturday only option! Our hotel block ends on November 4, 2024.
