WASHINGTON DC
Gynecologic Surgical Society
The attendees of the 2005 meeting in Washington say the meeting was a success. Over 90% of the physicians rated the course excellent to good.
Physicians came from 13 states and the District of Columbia. In addition 20 residents in Obstetrics and Gynecology from George Washington and Georgetown University Schools of Medicine attended. Several new members for our Society signed up at this meeting.
Particularly popular were the hands-on stations for hysteroscopy sterilization and virtual reality hysteroscopy surgery. Industry support for the meeting was good. Cooper Surgical, Immersion Medical, Conceptus Inc., Karl Storz Endoscopy America Inc, and Cytyc were represented.
