A wonderful time was had by all at the SFMS General Meeting on September 12 at the Golden Gate Yacht Club. With warm enthusiasm, SFMS President George Fouras, MD welcomed 60 residents and physicians—a quarter of which are first-time attendees!—to the annual event. Featured speaker CMA President James Hinsdale, MD delivered an informative presentation about CMA’s legislative efforts to preserve MICRA, prevent further reimbursement cuts from Medicare and Medi-Cal, and maintain the economic viability of physicians.

Event participants appreciated the chance to exchange new knowledge, gain insights into organized medicine, and to foster networking. Members expressed positive feedback and interest in becoming actively involved in future events, including the September 27th Career Fair, October 28th SFMS Night at the Symphony, and future mixers.
