On behalf of the Foundation for Orthopaedic Research & Education and Course Directors, Anthony A. Romeo, MD, Nikhil Verma, MD, and Kevin E. Wilk, DPT, FAPTA, we invite your company to exhibit at the Chicago Sports Medicine Symposium, which will take place August 3-6, 2017 at the Hyatt Chicago Magnificent Mile hotel in Chicago, IL.
This course has been designed to present knee, shoulder, elbow, hip and sports medicine ailments and the most advanced treatment options from nationally and internationally recognized orthopaedic surgeons. Live surgery broadcasts, workshops, case presentations and panel discussions will offer the participants the opportunity to interact with faculty and learn the most current solutions to these challenging problems.
The attached prospectus offers a wide variety of support packages designed to encourage opportunities to communicate your message to an eager and engaged audience. Supporting the course will allow you to provide orthopaedic surgeons with information and education about your products, while demonstrating your support for the orthopaedic community and commitment to educating healthcare professionals about sports medicine.
