President’s Message
John B. Forrest, MD

Dear Colleagues:

Many things have changed in health care since our last communication. Massive Federal legislation has been signed into law changing over time the delivery of health care in the United States. The implications of these changes may not yet be fully realized.

Despite these changes, the objectives of the South Central Section of the American Urological Association remain constant. We continue to serve our membership by providing the very best in the science of our profession at our annual meeting. This year is no di­erent with our annual meeting showcasing the best in urology. Under the direction of our program director Dr. Anthony Smith, our scientic program with be informative, stimulating and provocative. Our socioeconomic program will be timely and informative. We are pleased to welcome back Wayne M. Sotile, PhD for part two of his presidential guest speaker lecture, this year focusing on leadership, which will again be of interest to both physicians and spouses. This all occurs against the backdrop of The Greenbrier in White Sulphur Springs, West Virginia. It is truly one of the best, if not the best, resort in the United States.

We look forward to seeing all of you this fall at The Greenbrier.

John B. Forrest, MD

The Washington Post says: “You have watched ‘Saturday Night Live’ and you tune in to Comedy Central every night for ‘The Daily Show’ and ‘The Colbert Report.’ But when it comes to satire, you haven’t seen the real thing until you have been to the Capitol Steps.” It will be a night to remember.
