“Patients as Partners was one of the best conferences I’ve ever attended! The conference was perfectly organized and executed – I loved the interactive sessions, the many networking opportunities, the diverse speakers and relevant content, Mandy’s moving and energizing keynote, the fundraising opportunity for the Ronald McDonald House, and the passionate, supportive atmosphere. It was very memorable, and I have so much to take back for my team.”
