What Attendees are Saying
This was a great conference just as good if not better than any live conference I have attended. These are speakers I have had the pleasure hearing lecture at live conferences. They never disappoint with their lectures. They're always informative and enjoyable and most importantly leave me with a greater knowledge base to help my patients.

Andy Fortuna, DPM

Excellent lecturers with new and timely topics. Well thought out timing of lectures given the differences in time zones.
Christopher Japour, DPM

I am in the process of reactivating my NY license after 5 years. This was one of the first conferences I attended in 4 years and I was happy with the ease of registration, the presenters, the content, the exhibitor platform, the overall conference. I appreciate all the presenters and the Present Podiatry platform for giving me this valuable opportunity to "get back in the game." Thank you.
