Connecting to the DO Within—IM: the Osteopathic Way

This year's theme led by program chair, Watson Ducatel, DO, MPH, FACOI

As an osteopathic internist, your work is in tune with what’s powerful about both osteopathic medicine and internal medicine. Approaching care with a whole-person perspective is part of who you are; it informs the way you practice and your sense of purpose. Under the leadership of this year's program chair, Watson Ducatel, DO, MPH, FACOI, we'll explore the theme: Connecting to the DO Within—IM: the Osteopathic Way, where you’ll get to reconnect to that sense of self and purpose, and to the community that helps you stay true to why you practice medicine.

Our Annual Convention is where our community comes to life and the only place dedicated exclusively to current and aspiring osteopathic internists and subspecialists. We look forward to seeing you in the fall. Make your plans by booking your room at the Renaissance Esmeralda Resort & Spa now. Not able to join us in California? Join us virtually
