The Surgical Endocrine Symposium series is organized by the Department of Surgery at Hamad Medical Corporation (HMC), in collaboration with the Qatar Surgical Society, with the aim of delivering focused training to physicians and nurses in this specialized field of surgery.
The planning committee has developed an exciting program that includes presentations, panel discussions based on clinical case scenarios and recent research and clinical advances.
Presenters include specialists from multiple medical disciplines who are involved in the care of patients with adrenal pathology, including endocrinologists, surgeons, radiologists, pathologists, anesthetists, as well as cardiology and radiation and medical oncologists.
Part of the program will include a panel of experts who will discuss select adrenal patient cases that address recurring questions and highlight common management issues regarding this disease.
We invite physicians, especially surgeons, and nurses and allied health professionals, particularly those working in surgery or who are involved in related research, to attend this very targeted educational event.
Two symposia have already taken place. One of these was held on 6 October 2017 and was entitled “Surgical Endocrine Symposium: Adrenal Gland” and the other was held on 2 March 2018 entitled: “Surgical Endocrine Symposium: Parathyroid Gland.” Both proved to be very successful and well attended.
We look forward to welcoming all those who have a particular interest in this topic, and encourage you to register for this event, and the future symposia we are organizing.
Best wishes,
