A regional educational evening on dialysis vascular access hosted in partnership with the University of Texas Medical Branch.
About This Event
Hosted in partnership with the University of Texas Medical Branch (UTMB), this educational evening brings together nephrologists, interventional radiologists, and vascular surgeons to advance the standard of dialysis vascular access care.
UTMB has provided comprehensive dialysis care since 1969, when the first patient in Texas began chronic hemodialysis at the institution. This program continues that tradition, gathering expert voices for an evening of education and professional connection.
