Course Overview :
Fifty years ago, a group of cardiovascular experts gathered in New York under the direction of Dr. Henry Russek to discuss optimal strategies to treat patients with cardiovascular disease. After meeting annually for thirty years, Dr. Russek selected world-renowned cardiologist, Valentin Fuster, MD, PhD, MACC, to continue the educational goal of the meeting with cardiovascular peers and colleagues. For over twenty years, Dr. Fuster has brought together the masters of cardiology at the New York Cardiovascular Symposium. Now over 2,000 cardiovascular specialists come together for thought-provoking topics offered by expert presenters who provide the latest scientific updates, new technology, approaches and guidelines required to improve patient care. Join fellow cardiovascular clinicians at ACC’s premier course, set in the excitement of New York City during the holiday season featuring holiday lights, Broadway shows, shopping and festivities galore!
