47th Annual Magee Alumni Day
For this year’s Magee Alumni Day program, we have an exciting line-up of speakers consisting of past and current faculty and former residents. The program will feature updates on clinical care over the entire age spectrum of our patients. We expect the program to present topics that pose challenging clinical, technical, ethical, and financial issues that today’s OB/GYN often faces, whether in prac-tice or in an academic career. The program features endowed lectures – the Cohen, McCall, OB/GYN Legacy, Katz Minimally Invasive Surgery, the Alan Kunschner Memorial and Dr. Steve N. Caritis lectures.
Target Audience
This program is focused on health care practitioners in obstetrics and gynecology as well as in other primary care specialties.

4. To highlight alternative pain management options for endometriosis patients who have failed traditional treatments
