Overview

We are delighted to be hosting the Department of Surgery’s annual John Jones Surgical Society Symposium in conjunction with the P&S Alumni Reunion Weekend. We have put together an exciting agenda focusing on patient education in the digital age. We will be discussing new tools, how they are being utilized and the many challenges surrounding this new technology in the healthcare industry. Our experts will discuss topics such as; communication through patient portals, social media in medicine, data mining as the voice of the patient, innovations and much more! There will be plenty of time allocated for audience participation through Q&A. We look forward to seeing you all for an informative and memorable meeting!
