Upcoming Events

All Member Virtual Meeting

Every third Thursday we host a virtual meeting to discuss an issue that is relevant to our members and physicians across the state. We'll invite multiple experts to give us their perspective on the issue. Pre-registration is required, but attendance is free.

The next session will take place on April 22 at 6:30 pm CST. Our guest speakers will be Dr. Niran Al-Agba and Dr. Rebekah Bernard, authors of the book "Patients at Risk: The Rise of the Nurse Practitioner and Physician Assistant in Healthcare." This book exposes a vast conspiracy of political maneuvering and corporate greed that has led to the replacement of qualified medical professionals by lesser-trained practitioners.
