We need to fill this room and make sure the Pa Medical Society and the Pennsylvania Academy of Family Physicians KNOW that this issue is NOT GOING AWAY!!
It is very important for them to get behind this legislation (Pa House bill #894) for their doctors so that their docs have the right to decide how THEY want to treat.......not some insurance company!!!
Pat Smith will be speaking and the search for an ILADS dr. was still underway...

Hey Dek...
I hope to get there too. Everything is possible, sometimes. Maybe I will see you?
I've been working on some stuff that will be shared at the meeting for the last few days, so I am hoping the event goes well for our PA neighbors.
