  • This was hands down the best Conference yet. The speakers were excellent, it was very organized, the location was great. WELL DONE!
  • This has always been an excellent conference and this year was the best one yet!
  • This is the single greatest collection of immunization expertise in the country. The breadth of topics and quality of information is unsurpassed by other gatherings.
  • Valuable information on immunization not available through any other conference format.
  • Good information, the new science behind the vaccines was fascinating...
  • The conference presentation topics were highly relevant to my clinical practice, which in turns will improve my overall client care. The conference has highlighted the importance of addressing public concerns and fears (with vaccination), and to understand or see their perspective so that the health care professionals and the public can develop a trusting relationship in dealing with such sensitive issues.
  • When talking with parents about their concerns about vaccines I will have a better source of information to educate them on what is true and factual from what is misleading and misinformation.
  • It is a great opportunity to network and to keep up to date on various topics and new vaccines and research.
  • A great learning opportunity. Such expertise available to draw on. Wide and varied topics - all that are applicable to our practice. Fantastic networking opportunity as well. Fun to boot!
