Physicians committed to patient safety and comfort.

2020 Annual Conference

Registration is now closed.

Colleagues,

Our highest priority is the health, safety, and well-being of our MSA members and the communities they serve.


In light of the magnitude of the looming COVID-19 spread and the steady stream of recommendations to limit non-essential travel and group gatherings, after careful deliberation, the Executive Committee of the MSA has decided to reschedule the MSA Annual Conference, to be held virtually on September 19, 2020. Registration will open soon. We look forward to "seeing" you soon.

Sincerely,
Kyle Bohman, MD and Tae Kim, MD
MSA Annual Meeting Program Chair and Co-Chair
