See You in May
In Case You Missed It is taking a little break in order to attend the TOMF 23rd Annual Southwestern Conference on Medicine(R) April 24-27 at the JW Marriott Starr Pass Resort & Spa. Directly after the conference, we will attend the Arizona Town Hall April 27-April 30 at the Double Tree hotel in Tucson.
See you May 1. We'll continue to scan the news and look for medical/health stories from a variety of sources. We will bring them to you next week.
Just in case you missed it.
