  • SAGES 2021: Industry Sponsored Educational Activities

    “Support industry partners by attending one of their classes on how to use their products.” (Irony added by me, not part of SAGES message. Actually, not ironic, because the surgeons really will be supporting the industry by using their products. Support the industry. The classes are free.)

    Hands-on Workshop, 7:00 am – 5:30 pm
    Techniques in Hiatal and Ventral Hernia Repair – a full day hands-on workshop, sponsored by Cook Biotech Academy

Course faculty include: James Bittner, MD, FACS; Caitlin Houghton, MD and Raymond Sheppard, MD.
