A Message from the Conference Chairman and Planning Committee

Dear Colleagues:

It is with pleasure that we invite you to attend the 18th National Cardiovascular Medicine, Anesthesia, & Surgery Conference which will be held at the lovely Mandarin Oriental Hotel in Las Vegas, Nevada.  The hotel is located in the heart of the Las Vegas strip and is just 15 minutes north of the McCarran International Airport.

The planning committee has assembled a distinguished panel of Kaiser Permanente and external experts in the fields of cardiology, interventional cardiology, electrophysiology, cardiac anesthesia, and cardiac surgery to service faculty.  This years conference will feature important updates on clinical topics relevant to daily practice, important guideline updates, and a review of the most important clinical trials from the past 12 months.  The program has been designed to meet your educational needs.  CME credit will be available for attendees.

We have secured a block of hotel guest rooms and encourage you to come for the education but also to relax, rejuvenate, and make contact with friends and colleagues.  Las Vegas has a variety of fun activities and attractions to take advantage of when you are not in session.

To book your hotel room, you need to register for the conference.  Thereafter, you will receive an email registration confirmation with the hotel reservation link.  Please note that the greatly discounted rooms are available on a first-come, first-serve basis so we highly recommend that you register early.

We look forward to seeing you!

Somjot (Sam) Brar, MD, MPH (Conference Chair)
