Educational Objectives
Primary Care 2013 will focus on health problems commonly seen in the offices of primary care physicians. The objective of this three-day seminar is to provide participating physicians with information about new medical advancements in order to increase the scope of treatment options available to primary care physicians and to enhance the physicians' existing knowledge of topics that will be covered. Following Primary Care 2013, the physician should be able to apply this new medical information in diagnosis and treatment, thus improving patient care.
