MJ2202: 49th Annual Advances in Family Medicine and Primary Care

Registration has CLOSED effective Friday, September 10, at 12:00 pm Pacific Time.

This is the 49th year that the Department of Family Medicine at the University of Washington School of Medicine is offering educational opportunities for family medicine and primary care health care providers.

Each year our goal is to provide current information about practice skills and the diagnosis and management of a broad array of primary health care issues within family medicine, cardiology, endocrinology, psychiatry and behavioral science, neurology, sports medicine, women’s health, pulmonology, nephrology, infectious disease, chronic pain, pediatrics, and gastroenterology.

Course topics are chosen with these criteria in mind:

• Suggestions from previous course attendees.
• Distribution of topics should reflect the content of primary care.
• Recent breakthroughs that may have significant impact on primary care practice and health outcomes.
• Controversial topics where medical opinions may vary or are in flux.

This year we are excited to offer our course online via Zoom webinar. This will allow for broad access to our educational content while maintaining personal safety.
