DFCM Conference & Walter Rosser Day
"Prepare. Discover. Deliver. It Takes a Team"
2017 DFCM Conference & Walter Rosser Day
Whether in community-based clinics, hospitals, classrooms, meeting rooms or elsewhere, DFCM faculty are making advances in family medicine every day. The annual DFCM Conference and Walter Rosser Day is an opportunity for all DFCM faculty, health professional educators, staff, residents and others to connect, share and learn from each other.
A wide variety of workshops led by DFCM faculty provide hands-on learning on new advances in clinical practice, education, scholarship, research and other topics impacting family medicine and primary care.
Both days are free for those who attend. (Free parking will be available.)
