Welcome to the 2015
Annual Clinical Assembly
As president of the American College of Osteopathic Surgeons, the host organization for
the 2015 Annual Clinical Assembly of Osteopathic Surgeons (ACA), I am pleased to extend
greetings to all registrants and guests. Welcome to Chicago!
This year’s ACA provides the perfect opportunity for you to participate in educational programs
that will help you achieve surgical excellence in this changing environment, to network with
osteopathic surgeons from across the country, to reconnect with old friends, and to experience
one of our nation’s most exciting cities.
Don’t miss the featured speaker sessions that will kick off the first three days of the meeting:
Sunday, Oct. 4—“Winning in the Political System…It Takes You” by Michael E. Dunn
Sunday, Oct. 4—Theodore F. Classen Memorial Lecture: “Surgical Education and
Global Health—A Call to Action” by Mary Ann Hopkins, M.D., MPhil, FACS
Monday, Oct. 5—“The Other End of the Stethoscope” by Marcus Engel, MS
Tuesday, Oct. 6—“Beyond the Internet: A Comprehensive Review of Business
Development Processes That Build Medical Practices” by Rem L. Jackson*
and Tom Foster
Further enhance your educational experience at the 2015 ACA by visiting the Assembly
Sponsor displays of products and services that you can use in your practice. Also take time
to review this year’s scientific poster displays, which reflect many hours of hard work by our
fellow surgeons.
I encourage you to take advantage of everything the “Windy City” has to offer while you are
here for the meeting. Shop along Chicago’s Magnificent Mile, explore the city’s architectural
treasures through the Frank Lloyd Wright Preservation Trust and the Chicago Architecture
Foundation, experience its renowned museums and performing arts, and enjoy its many
great restaurants.
I am glad that you have joined us for the 2015 ACA. I know that it will be an enjoyable
and rewarding educational experience for you and our colleagues.
