Additional Information

I can highly recommend this upcoming talk about headaches.  Dr. Moren is a recognised expert in headache management in our community, and I am sure the talk will be excellent and there will be time to ask those tough questions.  There should be plenty of room available so invite your physician, PA, and student friends.
