About the Kansas City Southwest Clinical Society
The Kansas City Southwest Clinical Society is a regional professional medical society whose activities are devoted entirely to continuing medical education. Membership is open to physicians in all medical specialities. Founded in 1923, the Society is thought to be one of the oldest postgraduate medical education organizations west of the Mississippi. The Society is completely independent and has no affiliation with any area medical schools or hospitals. The Board of Directors is composed of physicians from all areas of Kansas City who practice at many different hospitals.
The purpose of the society is to encourage scientific investigation and the application of medical research to medical practice by promoting and participating in the development of continuing medical education conferences for physicians engaged in the practice of medicine. The Society fosters the development of clinical expertise in medicine by encouraging physicians to share knowledge and experience and to hold an Annual Clinical Conference devoted to topics of interest to physicians in clinical practice. |
