2022 Meeting is LIVE and In-Person in Sun Valley!
Dear Friends and Colleagues,
I trust that you and yours are well and enjoying the holiday seasons despite living in uncertain times. Many of you attended our 2021 annual meeting in Monterey, California organized by our Program Chair, Dr. Laila Rashidi. By all measures it was enjoyable and successful. In addition to the excellent scientific program some of the highlights included a Robotic Colorectal Surgery course prior to the meeting run by Dr. Rashidi and Dr. Val Simianu, a women in Surgery reception, and a fun kayak trip onto Monterey Bay.
We are preparing our 2022 meeting now and it proves to be equally impressive.
The meeting will be held at Sun Valley Resort in Sun Valley, Idaho from July 20-23, 2022. Please save the dates.
The program chair this year will be Dr. Samantha Quade from Providence Regional Medical Center in Everett, Washington. Dr. Tom Read the current President of ASCRS will be there and provide insightful presentations. The theme for our meeting will be Health Equity, Diversity and Inclusion. We have several excellent guest speakers who will address this timely and important topic. Please keep this in mind as you prepare your abstracts, in addition to the other scientific topics. We have several industry sponsors who have already committed to participate.
In preparation for the meeting, we will be asking you all to complete a brief survey asking about your personal experiences. We also hope to better inventory our society membership demographic characteristics. Please take the time to complete the survey to help us understand our membership and their needs.
Save the Date! July 20-23, 2022 Northwest Society of Colon and Rectal Surgeons.
All my best
