The Desert Foot Conference will be run live, in-person this year. A total of 24 CE/CME/CECH are being offered. This Conference is geared to the top podiatric surgeons, surgical residents, MDs, DOs, WOCNs along with the VA, DOD, IHS and AAWC members (www.desertfoot.org). Conference Chairman is Robert Frykberg, DPM, MPH, and Co-chairs are Drs Charles Andersen, Matthew Garoufalis, and Thomas Serena (Past-President AAWC). This meeting provides a great opportunity for you to meet, greet, and share your scientific leadership with a large part of the federal service wound care and surgical community, as well as hundreds of healthcare professionals in the private sector. The conference brings together six major groups involved with limb salvage preservation of the lower extremity, from healthcare clinicians in the private sector, the Veterans Administration, VA Podiatric Residency Directors, the Academy of Physicians in Wound Healing, the Association for the Advancement of Wound Care (AAWC), Arizona Podiatric Medical Association, and the Department of Defense from across the country to a single conference to best meet their educational needs. This important conference is always held in Phoenix, and the education is taught by our nation’s top key opinion leaders focused on evidence-based and best practices to improve limb salvage techniques, advanced wound care skills, and treat surgical and medical disorders of the lower limb. Our state-of-the-art rotating interactive workshops focus on advanced technologies that provide our attendees with hands-on practical experience and training on surgical procedures, advanced wound care, and new techniques in healing the lower extremity that will advance their skills and patient outcomes.
