Adam Oliver, MD
President, FNS
The Florida Neurosurgical Society welcomes you! Whether your interest is for CME, camaraderie, networking or political participation, we continue to work to represent all neurosurgeons across the state of Florida. Annual meeting attendance continues to grow and this year’s meeting at The Breakers promises to offer a broad range of talks from basic research to business models. Our enrollment remains open to physician extenders, neurologists and neuro-critical care colleagues as Affiliate members.
I am grateful for the relationships that I have developed with my colleagues in the Florida Neurosurgical Society. I am honored to serve as this year’s president. I would like to acknowledge a special thanks to outgoing president, Dr. Jason Blatt, and our current vice president, Dr. Lance Governale. Dr. Governale was the Program Chair last year and we had a great meeting. This year, our Program Chair, Dr. Adam Polifka, is putting together an engaging program.
Our meeting would not be the same or even possible without the participation of industry. Neurosurgery has always been a field that embraces innovation. Medical industry plays an integral part in that innovation as does physician application and feedback. I want to thank our sponsors and encourage their continued patronage.
This year’s meeting remains free to medical students and residents with separate cash prizes by the best research for each of these categories. We continue to seek out opportunities for participation for students and residents throughout the year.
There is a wide spectrum of involvement available within the FNS and I encourage you to get involved. Participation at the FNS can vary anywhere between attendance at meetings to election to the Board. Any position, however, starts with membership enrollment. I encourage you to enroll as a member of the FNS. It is relatively inexpensive compared to our national organization but your impact is far more proximal. Please introduce yourself to me and other surgeons across the state as we build a closer network of friends and colleagues.
