Join ISMA on Friday, Sept. 25, for the third annual Physician Wellness Symposium — a day devoted entirely to supporting physician well-being.
Get started early with “Walk with a Doc,” and breakfast, and enjoy fellowship with physicians around the state.
This year’s keynote speaker is Adam Hill, MD, a physician in long-term addiction recovery. Dr. Hill was division chief of pediatric palliative medicine at Riley Hospital for Children from 2017-2022, before being named the Inaugural Section Head and Endowed Chair of Pediatric Palliative Medicine at Children’s Hospital of Colorado in Sept. of 2022. Alongside his roles in palliative medicine, Dr. Hill serves as a certified executive coach and the Associate Director of Wellness at Children’s Hospital Colorado. Registrants will also get a copy of his book, “Long Walk Out of the Woods.”
Special guests therapy dogs from Paws and Think will be on site to bring joy and stress relief. Guests can also enjoy a chair massage courtesy of the ISMA Insurance Agency.
