Spotlight: Primary Care Conference

This activity is designed to provide focused updates on the most important topics that are critical for frontline primary care providers. The conference is designed with brief content area reviews that are clustered followed by Q&A sessions meant to engage attendees and provide a robust educational experience.

This year’s conference will include a pre-conference skills workshop covering basics of skin and soft tissue ultrasound and common outpatient skin biopsy procedures. Led by skilled clinicians in family medicine, internal medicine, and dermatology, this activity will serve as an excellent introductory session for the novice or a great review for those with prior experience.

The conference will be a full day of high-level content reviews delivered by local experts in a variety of topics of interest for a busy primary care clinician. Attendees can expect to gain practical tips to improve clinical performance and discuss new trends emerging in primary care delivery.
