Lecture
by Luminary Physicians
Lab instructors are selected from a palate of lifelong-earned career relationships and are matched to topics based on experience and practice. They take time to explain how the procedure works, their actual patient experiences, and prognosis for successful outcomes. All attendees are encouraged to join these discussions and ask questions.
Procedure Lectures
From the moment you step into the O.R., our instructors immerse you in procedure protocol. Each physician is given the opportunity to watch our luminaries work, then attempt procedures themselves under the careful supervision of the instructor.
Product Lectures
The lectures offer decades of experience coupled with in-depth device knowledge. Our instructors are typically lifelong Epimed customers, and they’ve got actual experience using Epimed products.
