See what you missed....You can find the minutes and presentations from the October, November, January and February meetings

at the PCA website link above.

We'll be meeting with our local specialists in May to discuss E-consult. Which local specialists would you be interested in asking a quick clinical question securely over e-consult? Unlike a hallway consult or email or text, you can bill for this! And your patient won't have to wait months for an answer. Please take 2 minutes to let us know which specialities you'd like to be able to access this way.
