Dear Colleague,
I invite you to join me and your colleagues in
internal medicine at the next scientific meeting
of the Delaware Chapter of the American
College of Physicians, being held February 14,
2015 at the John H. Ammon Medical
Education Center.
This meeting is not just for ACP members. I
particularly want to invite nonmembers to join
us for this important clinical update and to
learn about the benefits of membership at the
same time.
In addition to earning 5.5 CME credits, by
attending this meeting you will:
• Gain insight into recent medical advances.
• Discuss local and national issues affecting the
practice and teaching of internal medicine.
• Greet old friends, meet new friends, and
develop a network of colleagues in your area.
Between scientific sessions, please visit the
College table. You will find information on new
ACP programs, products, and services. There’s
always something new at the College table—
stop by and see for yourself.
This educational activity
has been designated for
5.5 CME credits.
To ensure your place at this invaluable meeting,
register now by visiting www.acponline.org/
about_acp/chapters/de/news_meet.htm and
completing the easy online registration form.
You may also complete the form at the back of
this brochure and send it by mail or fax. 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 Newark.
Sincerely,
R. Bradley Slease, MD, FACP
