Excerpts from evaluations of past conferences...“Wonderful Conference! Content was great for all.”

“Thank you for putting on such an awesome conference year after year!

“Best medical conference I have attended, exceeded my expectations!”“The content was interesting and significantly enhanced by the quality of the speakers. Thank you for the best FAPTP meeting thus far!”

“Well organized and managed; great perks, food, exhibits, location.”

“Thank you for another wonderful conference! It gets better each year!“

“Affordable, easy to get to, good speakers, friendly staff, current topics.”“Best, well rounded educational program for our pediatric hematology/oncology profession.”

“I really enjoy this conference. You had wonderful speakers that spoke on current, relevant pediatric hem/onc topics. As an APRN, I also appreciate that the material is not “dumbed-down” as many nursing conferences can be. I learned a lot and also appreciate the review of some important material. Lastly, the price including meals is also wonderful. It makes coming with my family an option which is very important to me. Thank you for a great few days!”

“Topics discussed very pertinent to practice. Some speakers gave material and suggestions to take back to home-based clinic.”

“Really great presentations and speakers, one of the best FAPTP conferences to date. Great variety of topics, really enjoyed it!”
