This year's 38th Annual AOMA State Convention will be hosted at the Little Rock Statehouse Convention Center on September 13th-17th.


Hotel Information and Booking 


   The 2023, 38th Annual AOMA State Convention will be here before you know it. We are already building upon last year's AOMA convention and plan for this year's meeting to be another hybrid meeting that will allow you to attend in person or virtually. Our conventions throughout the years have always been a major success thanks in large part to you!  


Convention Lectures and Exhibit Hall will be located in the Izard (Lectures) and Pope (Exhibit) Rooms within the Statehouse Convention Center.


Our current room block is full, but if you want to go ahead and register at the hotel, we will work with them to move you into our room block. Click Here to book your room.

 

The AOMA Annual Convention  provides at least 25 CME credits to a wide variety of healthcare professionals. It also allows great networking opportunities with other DO's so that you can expand your relationships and grow as needed. The AOMA Convention is the place to meet up with your extended osteopathic family and earn quality, affordable CME.


   At each State Convention there will be fun events for the whole family! This year's meeting is no exception as we will be hosting special events for your family members looking to attend. If you have anymore questions about this year's Annual State Convention, contact our office in Little Rock.
