Planning is underway for the PPA, Inc. 2021 Procedure Symposium to be conducted as a virtual conference.

While we would much rather bring everyone together in Savannah, Georgia as originally planned, doing so does not yet appear to be the best option in the year of COVID-19.

What we have learned over the course of this year is that much can be done virtually and in many ways, done better and at a lower cost.

Please check back soon for more details.
