Eat Learn Scan



In the movie Eat Pray Love, which is based on Elizabeth Gilbert's memoir of the same name, we watch an individual basically munch her way through exotic locales and discover her inner strengths.

You too can have that same experience (though not as exotic) by checking out the Lunch with the Expert sessions at the 2011 SVU Annual Conference. Yes, that's right. You too can eat delicious food, find the inner vascular clinician spirit within you, and come away a stronger individual.

In the end, let these sessions be a testament to the beauty of community, being around like-minded individuals that inspire us to be better vascular clinicians, and having a plate of good food. Yah!

Here's a quick rundown of sessions. Please remember that each session is a separate fee and comes with a delicious lunch.
