challenges in ob/gyn pearls for practice
TRANSCRIPT
It is a pleasure to invite you to our Annual Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology Conference on October 25th, 2019. We have invited several distinguished faculty from around the country to give state-of-the-art lectures, including:
Dr. Jeanne Sheffield, Director of the Division of Maternal-Fetal Medicine and Professor of Gynecology and Obstetrics at Johns Hopkins, who will give a lecture on emerging infections in obstetrics and gynecology.
Dr. David Keefe, Chair of the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology and Stanley H. Kaplan Professor at New York University (NYU), who will discuss the benefits and pitfalls of preimplantation genetic testing in IVF as well as what is new in medicine and stress.
Dr. Bethany Stetson, Assistant Professor of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Division of Maternal-Fetal Medicine at Northwestern University, who will discuss what’s new in labor and delivery.
Several of our own Distinguished Faculty are offering “pearls for practice” in their areas of expertise, including:
• Infertility and Recurrent Pregnancy Loss• High Risk Obstetrics
There will be ample opportunity to meet with all of the Distinguished Faculty to discuss clinical cases, and to reacquaint with friends or colleagues, over coffee or lunch.
I look forward to meeting healthcare providers who attend this Conference for the first time, and reuniting with colleagues, friends, and healthcare providers from throughout the state and beyond, and especially meeting with UIC alumni.
Mark your calendars, register online, and hope to see you soon!
