Dear Friends, As part of our 300th year Birthday
Celebration, a group of physicians was determined to include as part of the
festivities a look at our 300 years of history and advancements in medicine
in San Antonio. The symposium on May 12 seeks to give
perspectives on all aspects of our medical history, from the earliest times
of native medicine, to the actual precision medicine practiced in the 21st
Century. You will also learn about the history of our hospitals and our
multiple learning institutions. Our designated speaker will share with us his
thoughts about how “Health Institutions are the Future of San Antonio.” I want to thank all of my colleagues and the
administrative staff which has endured one full year of work to get to this
point. Please enjoy. Alfonso Chiscano, MD |
