With
great pride I would like to invite you to attend the SAMS11th annual
convention, which will be held on July 4, through July 7, 2010, at the Sheraton
Hotel in Damascus, Syria.
The
attendee will have the ability to earn up to 20 CME category one credit, which
will be issued by Cleveland Clinic.
The
convention theme this year will be “updates on treatments and techniques in
medicine”. The conference will offer CME and non-CME lectures and
workshops. The first day of the convention will focus on orthopedic,
spine & pain management. The second day will concentrate on oncology
conditions and their treatment. The third day will offer parallel sessions,
with one focusing on oncology conditions and the other centers on cardiac,
pulmonary and critical care. The fourth day will address miscellaneous
subspecialties in internal medicine and surgery.
In
addition to the scientific part of our convention, SAMS has traditionally
played a humanitarian role and provided medical care to the needy patients in
Syria. I urge everyone who is interested in being part of this
humanitarian role, to contact Miss Lucine Saleh, our executive coordinator, at samsconference@gmail.com.
The humanitarian role will be providing consultation, medical, and surgical
care to the needy. Your assistance and participation in this matter will
be greatly appreciated and welcomed.
Additionally
the Gala dinner will give the attendee the chance to meet and network with
their colleagues in the United States and Syria, and enjoy the entertainment
during this event at the Sheraton Hotel in Damascus, Syria.
I
am looking forward to your active participation and meeting all of you in
Damascus, Syria. For your convenience, I have attached a registration
form for the conference, which is also available on our web site at www.sams-usa.net.
You
can take advantage of the reduced early registration fee. With your
support, we are looking to having a successful 11th annual
convention in Damascus, Syria.
