For Associates
My Trip Experience

SD Governor Rick Holm, MD and SD resident poster winner Preetha Nair, MD at IM 2009 in Philadelphia.
Attending the National ACP Meeting in Philadelphia was one of the most memorable experiences for me. I was excited to see physicians from all walks of life gathered in one place to learn the latest developments in medicine. The 3-day meeting really helped me learn on diverse topics in Internal Medicine and its subspecialties delivered in different ways like Meet the Professor, Clinical Pearls, Clinical Update, Multiple Small Feedings of the Mind etc. There were several sessions dedicated to residents and medical students. Presenting my work at the ACP meeting was a really great boost for my confidence as a physician/scientist. I had the opportunity to meet and interact with not only the internal medicine residents and fellows from all over the US, but also with leading researchers like Dr. Cox. I was honored to represent South Dakota in the National Associate Poster Competition which involved around 400 posters from all over the US. I would like to thank the SD ACP chapter and my residency program for providing me this opportunity. I would definitely welcome the opportunity to attend this meeting again.
