Overview Join us for two and a half days of innovative content on foregut diseases with small group sessions that provide opportunities for interactive learning through case analysis and in-depth discussion. This activity is designed for physicians, nurse practitioners, physician assistants, nurses, and other health care professionals who care for patients with foregut diseases. We strongly encourage collaboration across disciplines to further this goal.
Objectives 1. Expand knowledge base of new foregut disease diagnostic criteria and therapeutic options.
2. Improve ability to accurately diagnose foregut disorders
3. Develop a knowledge base that will translate into more precise interventional procedures for patients
4. Increase interaction and collaboration between medical and surgical providers will ultimately improve patient outcomes.
