How about Sunday for Lunch? Any suggestions about where to go?

 

[JR]

Isn't there a lunch with C. Bradford on Sunday? We can meet there and continue somewhere else. I know a ophtho PGY-2 at Tulane; I can ask her for suggestions.

In this interactive forum, panelists will discuss their personal experiences and highlight various practice options, networking and referrals, advantages/disadvantages of fellowship training, and resources to assist individuals in making informed decisions about practice requirements.

John_Doe and I are meeting on Sunday for lunch and to discuss ways to encourage residents to participate politically. There is internet available at the AAO. So either PM me before I leave to get my cell phone number or use the www.eyeorbit.org message boards for registered members.
