"Podiatry and Vascular Medicine are very closely intertwined and it was a wonderful learning experience to learn as a student from a non-podiatric standpoint and I think the opposite could be said for other specialties as well."

2023 Attendee

"It was an immersive and engaging conference...Well organized and overall lay out of the schedule and the conference rooms. I especially enjoyed how the conference catered to and facilitated people making both personal & professional connections. I look forward to attending again soon!"

2023 Attendee

2023 Attendee

"Very nice combined coronary, structural heart and PV meeting. Readily accessible faculty and auditoriums are a good size being not too large. Good panel discussions of the latest approaches"

2023 Attendee

"As a surgeon, it is nice to hear the interventional perspective. Good collaboration and very innovative cases that are great examples to learn from."

2023 Attendee

"Excellent presentation topics and style. Loved the interactive and case-based nature of cases. Great networking opportunities. And the fellows course was wonderful!!"

2023 Attendee

"I really enjoyed the TED talk style template of the conference. It’s allowed for an amazing blend of various cases along with key note speakers. Additionally, the opportunity for hands on simulation with the ICE catheter was an amazing opportunity."

2023 Attendee

“Used these tips today for a case with radial entrapment, great to have learned these techniques @cvinnovations #RadialFirst”

Punag Divanji, MD

"Great discussion and lots of information regarding new protocols/standards to apply in current practice. Also numerous innovation that can help the providers and some lessons learn from difficult coronary and peripheral cases. Definitely, highly recommended for our new and expert colleagues."
