  • Boy, were my expectations blown out of the water. Not only was the event not a flop, it was OUTSTANDING. From planning, to speaker selection, to organization and execution, it was top notch. To any of you who were not fortunate enough to be able to attend, don't miss the next one!!

    — Dr Lloyd Tucker

  • I just wanted to say "Thank You" for all of your hard work and effort in making the First IADS Forum a huge success. Thank you for bringing together some of the brightest minds in our profession. I learned a lot this past weekend. It was so nice to finally meet a lot of my colleagues that I have "met" on the Webinars in-person and that I have formed new friendships with. Yasher Koach to you and the team that put this amazing event together. It was absolutely First Class. I am looking forward to furthering my education through the IADS community.

    — Dr Alan H. Brasilier

  • OUTSTANDING event in ALL ways: Facility - AMAZING Organization - Excellent flow and transitions A-V - Very impressive Schedule - Just right Food - varied, plentiful, filling and good Speakers - OVER THE TOP Colleagues - More impressive than ever You hit a home run on your first at bat but please don’t quit while you're ahead. Since I’m retired, I came to “see in person” people I’ve “known” for over 7 years but never met. Didn’t think I would have much interest in the presentations, I was wrong! I was riveted and blown away by what I saw. Almost, but not quite enough to get me back to work. Thank you for such a great symposium. Heck, I’ll even volunteer to help at next year's event!

    — Dr Mark Terry

  • That was one buttoned-down event! No loose ends or any "that could have been done better," at least from my perspective. Congratulations and enjoy a little rest!

    — Dr Roman Melnyk

  • I too echo everyone's sentiments about this successful iADS Forum this weekend. It was great finally meeting the "zoom faces" in person. I immensely enjoyed the camaraderie and the learning we all shared! Thank you, Alan!!!
