Standing Room Only at NAPCRG Clinical Pearls Presentations

NAPCRG’s Clinical Pearls presentations have been gaining traction for the past two years, and reached a defining moment at the Family Medicine Forum (FMF) in Toronto recently.  The room was so packed full of people, the group was required to change rooms by the fire marshal.  As shown by this success, clinicians are obviously interested in the latest research that is relevant to their practice.

Clinical Pearls presentations are NAPCRG taking the best of the best research that will have an impact on primary care clinical practice and presenting it to clinicians.  The presentations leave out the methodology, and are presented in a digestible format that is relevant to the clinician audience.   Clinicians at the 2011 FMF, the AAFP’s 2011 Scientific Assembly, and again at this year’s 2012 FMF have responded with only positive feedback and each year continue to grow in popularity.

A well-deserved ‘Bravo!’ goes out to those who have made this program a success.  This was the vision of Past President, Jeannie Haggerty, who also was a presenter at the presentation at FMF in 2011 along with Val Gilchrist and Rick Glazier.   Vanessa Diaz has been integral to the program’s success and presented at the 2011 Scientific Assembly with Bernard Ewigman.  Last week in Toronto, Rick Glazier, Martin Dawes, and David White brought down the house with their presentation.

Way to go to all involved in this important program!
