“Excellent format and location”

“Dear Colleagues:Year after year, participants tell us that Spine: Base to Summit is one of the best, even the best program they attend. But, even after 32 years, the meeting strives to get better.

Please take 2-minutes to review the program. It’s highly interactive, packed with tips for the OR, and addresses the spine from cervical to sacrum.

We hope you’ll join us!
