The 34th annual "Medical and Surgical Aspects of Esophageal & Foregut Disorders: Pathophysiology and Treatment" course was held this past week on the Big Island of Hawaii led by FSIE Innovations Team member and Program Director Dr Steven DeMeester (who barely made it due to a racquetball injury!). FSIE President and Founder Dr Lee Swanstrom spoke on the Future of Endoscopic surgery and other topics as an invited lecturer among other world renowned leaders in esophageal disease. The rest of us got to soak up the sun (and the knowledge of course)- well all except for Lisa and Angi who had to run the show from behind the scenes. Great job everyone!
FSIE is looking forward to another blockbuster showing at this year’s annual SAGES meeting.
FSIE founder and president Dr Lee Swanstrom will be honored at a special session called "Pearls from the Forefathers of Foregut Surgery” chaired by Board member Dr Mike Ujiki. The session will be a tribute to the most influential contributors and mentors in foregut surgery including Drs Tom DeMeester, John Hunter and Nat Soper. Watch for date and time and more details! Here’s a sneak peek at more FSIE activities. See you there!
