SAVE THE DATE Upcoming Grand Rounds

W e just wrapped up our 59th

Annual Winter Clinics in

McCall and had one of the

best faculty line-ups in sev-

eral years. The central topic of Managing

Obesity was so popular, we blew through

our cap of 120 on-site attendees and ended

up adding seats via web conference.

The wide variety of perspectives on this

topic by local and national speakers provid-

ed for, shall we say, a "vigorous" conversa-

tion. Duke University's Dr. Eric Westman

made a strong pitch for a no moderation

low-carb, high-fat (Keto) diet, while Dr.

James Valentine shared about the safety of

bariatric surgery. Drs. Jennifer Shalz and

Amy Baruch pushed lifestyle as medicine,

explored alternative medical therapies, and

gave physicians more education on nutri-

tion in one hour than most probably re-

ceived in all of residency.

Local obesity medicine physician, W. Allen

Rader, spoke on the psychology of weight

loss, and OB fellow Tom Wonderlich cov-

ered the care of obesity during pregnancy.

We finished up on Sunday with an excellent

presentation on the use of probiotics by Dr.

Robert Martindale of OHSU. Thomas Jef-

ferson University's Dr. Salvatore Mangione

provided a world-class presentation on the

need to reintegrate right and left brain

thinking in medicine, and also shared an

Augenblick approach to gait analysis. We

continued our learning with robust dialog in

our deep-dive sessions with some of the

speakers, and Idaho Medical Association’s

Teresa Cirelli shared on how to correctly

bill for obesity management. With the overall conference themed around “Idaho in the Movie’s,” local CEO Rhea Allen of Peppershock Media highlighted

some of the things happening in the film industry in Idaho right now: film festivals, movie making contests, documentaries, and burgeoning opportunities. Unfortunately, due to a large tri-state juniors competition on the slopes, Brundage Mountain would not host our infamous ski races. Nevertheless, prizes were still awarded this year to 17-year-old Anna Gussner, coming out of nowhere to steal the women’s trophy, and Dr. Global Warming winning the men’s ski races. The Travelling Horn “best ski race attempt” was given to Brundage Mountain. Special thanks go to Mayra Ruiz, director of ACMEC, for bringing together a record shattering CME event, and to our sponsors who keep it affordable: MIEC, Washington Trust, IMA Financial Services, DL Evans Bank, Dairy West, and St. Luke’s.

LOOKING FOR VOLUNTEERS: ACMEC

ONLINE CME ACTIVITY REVIEWERS

ACMEC conducted a needs assessment to

determine if members would like the Grand

Rounds video library to return. The library

would contain online recordings of select

Grand Rounds, consisting mainly of voice-

over PowerPoint. CME credit would be award-

ed to members upon successful completion of

a post-test and evaluation, with the option to

also earn MOC Part 2 points for select activi-

ties.

So far, ACMEC members have expressed an

interest in having these online modules availa-

ble to them. Therefore, ACMEC has started

developing these modules and are almost

ready to deploy them to members, but we

need your help!

We are looking for volunteers to review select

modules to help us troubleshoot any technical

glitches and validate the clinical content. The

estimated time commitment for each module

review is approximately two hours.

Current ACMEC members who are interested

in serving as reviewers should email us at

acmec@acmec.org with Online Reviewer in

the subject line. Thanks!
