As any organization matures, its scientific program should parallel that maturity. The Program Committee has diligently tried to incorporate feedback from previous annual sessions and experience in other organizations to create an even more dynamic program than in years past. Expert faculty from the U.S. and abroad have been invited to make this year’s program appealing to all medical professionals, regardless of their current level of training. On Thursday, November 6th, we begin our Pre-Congress day with a comprehensive introduction to phlebology. The morning lectures are complemented by afternoon workshops offering live patient evalu- ations and video demonstrations of pertinent procedures. Separate program tracks are offered for attendees with an interest in ultrasonog- raphy and practice management. A new offering this year is a day-long Aesthetic Procedures Track. Chaired by Dr. Neil Sadick, this opportu- nity features faculty who are second to none in their knowledge and experience in office-based aesthetic medicine. The Congress, November 7-9, will offer early morning interac- tive sessions which provide attendees with an opportunity to interact with experts in a smaller forum. In addition to giving the keynote lecture, Dr. Anthony Comerota will lead an all-inclusive symposium on the current management of DVT. Daily abstract sessions will give attendees the opportunity to stay abreast of new research in all aspects of venous disease. Marco Island offers fun for the entire family. From alligators and airboat rides to golf by the Gulf, the relaxed setting makes a perfect family getaway. So make plans to join us November 6-9, 2008 at the Marco Island Marriott Resort, Golf Club & Spa for an experience that is sure to be both educational and enjoyable for the entire family. Kenneth L.
