2008 Attendee Testimonial

“It’s great, I’ve really enjoyed it, this is my first time coming...I heard good things about it from physicians that are on my Palliative care team...I was very interested on how the format would work and I’ve been very, very pleased with it...I love the 20, 25 minute segments, I like getting done, getting the real meat of the information then moving on to the next [talk] and by one o’clock you’ve had lots of information.”
