Continuing Medical Education

 

Medical information is rapidly expanding, and standards are in a constant state of change.  Without a substantial effort, a physician’s knowledge will rapidly become outdated.  This is an even greater problem in a small rural town where educational conferences are non-existent and there is no opportunity to share ideas with colleagues.

 

The State Board of Medicine requires  50 hours of continuing education yearly to maintain a medical license.  There is a limited requirement for relevant content.

 

To keep abreast of developments in medical knowledge, I have consistently recorded over 100 hours of structured continuing education yearly since leaving the intellectually stimulating atmosphere of my former practice in Ohio.  Additionally, I have engaged in hundreds of hours of unstructured continuing educational activities such as journal reading and daily online updates.

 

Maintenance of high intellectual standards is a critical part of our urology practice.
