Chris Subbe and WAPS are delighted to be hosting our next face-to-face only symposium – this time in fabulous North Wales after a six-year hiatus!
We will cover recent medical updates and reflect on the current clinical and non-clinical challenges we all face in healthcare. As always, we have a range of sessions and speakers and we especially welcome anyone in acute/general medicine to our event – delivered by our acute medicine multidisciplinary family in Wales and beyond!
