WELCOME TO THE SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA VASCULAR SURGICAL SOCIETY

Dear Colleagues and Friends,

It is with great excitement that I welcome you to the Southern California Vascular Surgical Society’s Annual Meeting, which will take place from April 4-6, 2025, at the beautiful Rancho Bernardo Inn. This annual gathering provides a unique opportunity for our vibrant vascular surgery community to come together, exchange ideas, and learn from one another.

I invite you to participate by submitting your abstracts on December 15, 2024, with the submission window closing on January 31, 2025. Your contributions are what make our annual meetings such a rich exchange of knowledge, and we look forward to showcasing the latest advances in vascular surgery.

I am thrilled to introduce our outstanding program committee, who will be instrumental in making this year’s meeting an exceptional event. I’d like to welcome Dr. Linda Chun, our new Program Chair, whose leadership, and vision promise to bring a fresh perspective to this year’s scientific program. Dr. Michael Brewer joins her as a valued member of the Program Committee, and together, they are preparing an engaging and innovative educational experience.

Please mark your calendars and join us at Rancho Bernardo Inn for an engaging weekend of education, networking, and camaraderie. We look forward to welcoming you to what promises to be a memorable event.

Warm regards,
Dr. Kausal (Kevin) Patel
