Tap into expert level skills to really hear your patients, seek further clarification, and critically think through each comprehensive scenario that comes your way.

This advanced event will provide you with the necessary tools to address uncomfortable topics, streamline patient encounters with new tools, and create lasting treatment plans. A few of the topics covered include:
