PEDIATRIC UPDATE
NOVEMBER 20-23, 2014
Welcome
This year, the Annual Las Vegas Seminars will
be held at the exciting Bellagio in Las Vegas.
The attendance at our conference, now in its
thirty-sixth year, exceeds 600 practitioners,
representing pediatricians and allied health
professionals from all parts of the United
States and from many foreign countries.
We thank our many excellent speakers - a true
all-star cast of the most knowledgeable
educators in pediatrics and pediatric
subspecialties. Most of all, we are grateful to
our meeting registrants for their continuing
interest and enthusiasm.
General Information
The overall learning need identified by our
physicians’ education committee was for
practical, evidence-based medicine that can
be applied in the clinical setting. Needs in a
wide variety of subject areas were identified.
This program will address the areas of
dermatology, infectious diseases, neurology,
ophthalmology,
psychiatry
and
sports
medicine. This is an opportunity to escape the
frantic pace of wintertime pediatrics, visit with
old friends, make new friends, and return home
refreshed with new knowledge and relaxed
from three to four beautiful days in exciting
Las Vegas.
