-Emergency physicians like variety and activity, and our conferences are designed to match with this in mind. We understand that knowledge acquisition is only one component of mastering EM, so our education addresses all six ACGME Competencies.
-Residents prepare and present many of our educational activities with assistance and mentoring by the faculty. Teaching enhances resident learning and builds skills for a future career, whether in academics or community practice.
