Overview

The “12th Annual Topics in Primary Care” conference will focus on updates on common problems encountered in primary care practice, bringing excellent instructors to provide teaching in a variety of formats geared toward learning and retention.

Morning sessions will consist of lectures with discussion panels on topics including common myths in internal medicine with Dr. Doug Paauw, followed by cases in diabetic care, atrial tachycardias and electrophysiology, management of common urinary concerns in older patients and updates in cancer screening guidelines.

Afternoon virtual workshops give opportunities for more in-depth review and practice of knee and shoulder exams and case-based interactive discussions on common musculoskeletal foot problems, infectious disease and cognitive biases in diagnosis. We will conclude the day with a talk on articles that have changed practice over the last year, by Dr. Michael Soung. 

Teaching methods include lecture, Q&A with faculty, case presentation, and breakout sessions.
