On Tuesday, January 12, PPGV members Jerry Walden, Bill Wadland and Jim Peggs conducted our PPGV powerpoint presentation at Grand Rounds for the Department of Internal Medicine at Sparrow Hospital, Lansing. Estimated attendance was 30 individuals; the audience was attentive, engaged and inquisitive. We added another 14 names to our member list. Whether we ultimately managed to change behavior of any physicians or their at-risk patients is purely hopeful but at least the issue received appropriate attention.
Our next scheduled presentation is on Feb. 23 at DeVos Children’s Hospital in G.R.
