Kind Words From Past Conference Attendees

OB Shock Attendee, 2024


This conference was by far the best during my long career in academic medicine. Great lectures by passionate and clinically competent speakers; I also enjoyed the panels and subsequent discussions.

OB Shock Attendee, 2024

I enjoyed that the lectures were all relevant to everyday practice. The lecturers were amazing and from a variety of specialties. Please add a POCUS workshop for next time!

Addiction medicine attendee, 2024

I am grateful to each of the speakers for your time, dedication, and passion to filling a critical gap in the care for women. I took away invaluable information from each individual session that will help me to be a more compassionate, educated, and well-rounded provider and to better understand the nuances of treating SUD in the perinatal period. Thank you!”

Addiction medicine attendee, 2024

This has been absolutely incredible. I have learned so much and each of you are a wealth of knowledge. Proud to know there are providers in the space dedicating so much time and passion to create change for this huge need. Thank you for allowing me to be here and learn from you.
