9th Annual Pain Symposium

Course description

Dear Colleague,

We take great pleasure in inviting you to our 9^thAnnual Pain Symposium, presented by Department of Family Medicine, at the University of Pretoria. This year we will also focus on 3 common mental health disorders which are often present in chronic pain patients, such as opioid addiction, depression and adult ADHD.

We have again managed to secure prominent key opinion leaders as speakers for both the Pain and Mental Health presentations. All speakers will focus on practical aspects of management with many “take home” messages for your practices, whether you are a medical practitioner, physiotherapist, biokineticist, or any other professional involved in pain management.

There is a special “early bird” registration rate of only R950 before 30 April 2017. For this reduced rate delegates can earn 6 CPD points plus 2 Ethics points.

Please note that seats will again be limited and that the Conference Facility on the Main Campus of University of Pretoria can only accommodate a maximum of 300 delegates. All our previous Symposia have been oversubscribed and we again expect a “full house”.

Velocity Vision is the appointed Symposium organizers and all registration and other related communication can be done with them as follows:
