Medical Marriages Night

Medical Marriages Night was amazing!  We had a great turn out of over 80 people.  Thanks for coming.  We had a great panel of doctors, their wives, and financial advisers.  They shared their personal experiences of how they have kept their families strong throughout their medical journey.  There is a financial power point presentation available via email.  If you are interested, please email medicalspousesutah@gmail.com and we will send it to you.  A very special thanks to Michelle Chestnut, Jocelyn Knott, and Mandi Enz for putting together a wonderful night for us all!

Day at the Legislature

Day at the Legislature was awesome!  We learned heaps about legislation from the Utah Medical Alliance Association (UMAA) and from members of the House and Senate.  It was cool.  The UMAA taught us about the bills that they are requesting to be considered and passed.  It was interesting listening to the healthcare issues and how they will affect physicians and medical students in the future.  During lunch we were privileged to listen to four physicians (members of the House and Senate) speak about current healthcare issues.  They stressed the importance of physicians getting involved in government to ensure doctors taking part in healthcare decisions.  If you couldn't make it this year, go next year to become involved and informed.

If you are not familiar with Festival of Trees here is a bit of history...
For 42 years, the Festival of Trees has been a “Gift of Love” to children at Primary Children's Medical Center.  The Festival is organized by a volunteer board of 85 women who enlist time and talents from thousands of individuals, organizations (LIKE MSA!), businesses, and families throughout Utah.  Over $30.8 million has been raised for children at Primary Children’s Medical Center through the Festival since 1971, with $1,655,931.40 raised in 2011.
