Welcome Message from Senior Vice President Emeritus, Medical Education of ACP
Dear Friends and Colleagues,
It is a great pleasure to extend to you a warm invitation to attend the 5th Qatar Internal Medicine Conference, October 11-13, 2018. The American College of Physicians (ACP) has had the privilege of being a part of the HMC Internal Medicine Conference since 2016, and we are looking forward to contributing to an exciting program once again.
In my role as Senior Vice President Emeritus, I have had the privilege of leading ACP’s medical education and contributing to top clinical resources; therefore, it is an honor to share with you portions of the high-quality content that ACP is well known for all over the world.
This year, we bring to you distinguished professors with a variety of learning formats and subspecialty updates to provide a well-rounded educational experience. We are also pleased to bring back the friendly but highly competitive Doctors Dilemma®, a medical quiz competition, with five competing teams this year.
ACP is a diverse community for learning, growing and achieving in internal. With 152,000 members (both specialists and subspecialists) across the globe, ACP is the largest medical-specialty society in the world. Together with our hosts from the Internal Medicine Department, Hamad General Hospital, Hamad Medical Corporation, we hope that you will have a productive and unique experience at this very special conference in the beautiful city of Doha.
