COURSE CHAIRMAN<br />
Dear sir / mdm,<br />
The <strong>2nd</strong> Foot and Ankle Update <strong>course</strong> <strong>2013</strong> is designed to provide<br />
surgeons with knowledge and skills to provide various options for surgical and non surgical<br />
management of common <strong>foot</strong> and <strong>ankle</strong> disorder. The organizing committee has modified<br />
the program based on feedbacks from previous <strong>course</strong>s in order to provide relevant and<br />
more effective training and learning experience to our participants. We hope to cover<br />
various options of Foot and Ankle pathology with hand on workshop on common<br />
procedures. In addition, we also provide opportunity for Theater, clinic, diabetic <strong>foot</strong> care<br />
nurse and physiotherapist to learn and <strong>update</strong> their knowledge about <strong>foot</strong> and <strong>ankle</strong><br />
patients care. We are happy that a few world experts in this field have confirmed their<br />
participation.<br />
The organizing committee has decided to limit the number or registrations to<br />
40 doctors and 40 paramedic for the <strong>course</strong> this year (This is because of hand on<br />
workshops). We would like to invite interested orthopaedic surgeons, nurses and<br />
physiotherapists to send in your registration forms before 1 st May <strong>2013</strong>, after which the<br />
remaining seats will be open to the trainees on first come first serve basis.<br />
Further information about the <strong>course</strong> and further <strong>update</strong>s will be available on<br />
the homepage of <strong>Malaysian</strong> <strong>Orthopaedic</strong> Association. We hope that this <strong>course</strong> will be able<br />
to provide effective training for orthopaedics surgeons in this region.<br />
Thank you very much.<br />
Sincerely yours,<br />
