Family Medicine Summit is the flagship annual conference for the Alberta College of Family Physician (ACFP). 2020 was the second time I attended this conference, and I appreciate the quality of the keynote presenters. The sessions are highly relevant to family medicine, and the speakers are aware to tailor their talks to help primary care.
This year's conference was especially meaningful to attend as the attendees were highly motivated to discuss to major issues that were unfolding before Alberta physicians: the COVID-19 pandemic and the master agreement with the Alberta government regarding physician compensation.
I've assembled my main takeaways into several blog posts. While most of the sessions were strong, the ones that provided the highest impact on my practice are listed below:
First: Strategic Approach to Syncope for the Office Practitioner
Second: Metacognition and Avoiding Clinical Errors in Medical Decision-Making
Third: Making Space
Honorable mention: Thyroid Nodule
