NCAFP

Thank you @ionispharma for sponsoring today's lunch! We get to mix delicious food with lively conversations, all before jumping back into the Symposium.

NCFM Today is back! We review the 2025 Winter Family Physicians Weekend, the expected impacts of the recent federal law, which NCAFP members are moving into new leadership roles, and other topics! Listen now at buzzsprout.com/909250/episode…

Yesterday, NCAFP CME & Events Director Kathryn Atkinson led her final @AENCtweets Annual Meeting as President! Kathryn conducted the meeting’s official business and introduced several awards – including giving the President’s Award to @gkgriggs! Congrats to Kathryn and Greg!

Today is a great milestone for our very own @gkgriggs: 20 years of outstanding work in service to NC family physicians! That span is no small feat - and neither is the impact Greg has made. Enjoy this tribute video from Greg’s colleagues and friends: vimeo.com/1102218451?

NCAFP past president @dowlerdoc appeared on @nytimes The Daily to discuss Medicaid reductions! Her care for rural patients gives Dr. Dowler insight into how lost Medicaid coverage will affect them: “There are going to be challenging aspects,” she says. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/one…

Had a great few days on Capitol Hill earlier this week advocating for family physicians and their patients. Great meetings with Rep. Murphy, Rep. Moore, Rep. Adams, and Rep. Foxx, as well as healthcare staff from many of the others in NC's Congressional delegations.

Thank you to Rep. @timreedernc, Rep. @CampbellforNC, and Rep. @ReecePyrtleNC for meeting with Dr. Bailey Sanford and @hannahrayala! They are both completing our policy elective, so visiting the General Assembly to discuss these reps' own advocacy journeys was a great day!

Here is everything you need to know about the Hybrid Summer Symposium from this past weekend! NCAFP members learned together, earning up to 26.50 CME credit hours and enjoyed the usefulness and camaraderie of shared learning. Read more: ncafp.com/news/ncafp-202…

Thank you to everyone who joined us today at the Summer Symposium! We can't host these events without our great in-person and virtual attendees to make them work. As you can see, we enjoyed the experience and the guest faculty!

In case you missed it: the NCAFP Networking Social last night had all the fun and camaraderie we could've hoped for! Here's what everyone was enjoying:

Welcome to the 2025 Summer Symposium! We're starting with a morning full of chronic disease topics, led by Dr. Thomas White. After lunch, the Symposium continues with a great slate of sports medicine CME led by Dr. Deanna Didiano. Thank you to everyone who is joining us today!

The Symposium is off to a great start! First up is the Care of Women KSA with Dr. Jonathon Firnhaber. The room is full, the teaching is great, and the weekend has only just started! (Here's a peek at how our virtual attendees are enjoying the KSA!)

Tomorrow, the Summer Symposium starts! We can't wait to see everyone in Greensboro and online! If you want to attend virtually, you can register through Saturday morning: ncafp.com/summercme

Today, Dr. Tom Wroth and @ncdhhs Sec. Dr. Dev Sangvai appeared on a @communitycarenc panel with @timreedernc! During their panel, Drs. Sangvai, Wroth, and Sangvai came together to discuss the health policy that matters most to independent primary care practices in North Carolina!
