We are offering many new lectures and workshops in addition to many of our tried and true presentations at this very popular AAPPM meeting. As usual, we have taken care to make sure that all types of attendees, from seasoned veterans to new practitioners to first-time attendees, podiatric assistants to office managers, find interesting and relevant winning strategies and ideas they can use to build and improve their practices starting Monday morning. As you look through the schedule, please note some new specialized workshops and roundtables - Protocols Development, Long Term Portfolio Analysis, Conflict Communication and Negotiation Tips, and luncheon discussions for retiring podiatrists and office managers, to name just a few of the new lectures. As you are planning your workshop choices, note that some workshops Friday run all morning and for others you can choose two shorter workshops for the morning. Crocs has generously offered to provide dinner and entertainment for children from 3 to 13 during the Friday night buffet dinner as well as free crocs so that parents will not need to hire a babysitter.
