Dear Colleague,
I invite you to join me and your pediatric colleagues at our Eighth Annual
Meeting of the Nevada Chapter of the American Academy of Pediatrics
on Friday, July 31, 2015 at the Springs Preserve in Las Vegas.
This meeting is not just for AAP members. I particularly want to
invite nonmembers, family practice physicians and other healthcare
professionals to join us for this important update on very timely pediatric
issues.
Our Mission is to better the lives of infants, children, adolescents, and
young adults throughout the State of Nevada by improving child health
through increased access to care; legislative and community advocacy;
support of research; education of pediatric healthcare providers; and
support of the Chapter’s members.
In addition to earning 7.0 CME, by attending this meeting you will:
• Gain insight into recent medical advances.
• Greet old friends, meet new friends, and develop a network of
colleagues in your area.
To ensure your place at this invaluable meeting, please complete the
registration form at the back of this brochure and send it in today with
your check or credit information.
The opportunities available at this meeting will help you meet not only
your needs as a physician, but also the needs of the patients you serve.
I look forward to seeing you in Las Vegas.
Sincerely,
Kami Larsen, MD, FAAP
AAP President, Nevada Chapter
