Southeastern Section of the AUA

Practicing urologists, as well as those in training, are confronted with learning extensive amounts of knowledge. The broad scope of information, including basic and translational science, clinical practice, and socioeconomic challenges, makes it difficult for urologists to stay current with latest developments, thereby leading to professional practice gaps. The sessions at this meeting will provide participants with current knowledge to bridge these gaps and facilitate the delivery of optimal patient care.
