April 13 – 16, 2014 | Westin Kierland Resort, Scottsdale, AZ 1 LETTER FROM THE PRESIDENT On behalf of the Southwestern Surgical Congress, it my pleasure to welcome you to the 66th annual meeting at the Westin Kierland Resort and Spa in Scottsdale, Arizona. The Program Committee under the leadership of Dr. Shanu Kothari has assembled an outstanding educational program. As many of you know, the Southwestern Surgical Congress has a long tradition of providing outstanding science in a collegial environment with family- oriented activities. The Westin Kierland Resort and Spa is located in the heart of Scottsdale and provides numerous options for activities including challenging golf on three world-class courses, a tranquil spa, tennis courts, and fitness facilities. The property offers a spectacular outdoor pool complex with a sand beach, waterslide, and a 900-foot lazy river. The meeting is organized to maximize the educational opportunities for attendees. There will be two parallel postgraduate courses on Sunday, April 13th, both free of charge. “Current Management of Hernias” will be co-directed by Dr. Dean Mikami and Dr. Kristi Harold, internationally recognized experts in the latest treatments for hernias, and an excellent faculty. Dr. Peter Angelos has organized an outstanding faculty for the second postgraduate course, “Updates in Endocrine Surgery”. Our meeting begins officially in the afternoon on Sunday, April 13th with the opening plenary session. As in years past, we will have morning Quick Shot sessions and the traditional outstanding competition for the Jack Barney Award for the best resident paper. The debate this year will be titled, “Taking Call: Pay to Play”, during which Dr. Thomas White and Dr. Ronald Stewart will debate the rationale for being paid for taking call or not. Last year was the inaugural Partners in Practice Luncheon and we will have a similarly excellent lunch program this year. The graduate medical education luncheon will feature a panel presentation on “Practice Models in Surgery” moderated by our GME Chair, Dr. Daniel Vargo. 2 Southwestern Surgical Congress | 66th Annual Meeting LETTER FROM THE PRESIDENT (continued) Th e invited lectures will feature Dr. Peter Angelos, Dr. Daniel Margulies, and Dr. Shanu Kothari.
