GYN Health: The Basics & Beyond
Due to the severity of the winter storm and ongoing hazardous road conditions across the region, we have made the decision to cancel the 2/24 GYN Health: The Basics & Beyond seminar. The safety of our attendees, providers, and staff is always our top priority.
We are actively working to reschedule the event and will follow up directly with everyone who registered to share the new date and provide the opportunity to RSVP.
We appreciate your understanding and look forward to welcoming you soon for this important and informative discussion.
Thank you,
