A valuable opportunity for the providers in the community to gather together, keep on top of changes in clinical practice guidelines & research findings, and also share what we have learned through attending specialty meetings. The symposium also provides us the opportunity to learn about the wide variety of subspecialty projects/initiatives that are being implemented within the practice, and to address any barrier to providing up to date GI care in the Primary care setting.

2. Summarize available advanced therapeutic procedures for GI malignancies.
3. Explain 3 risk factors for colon cancer that would necessitate early screening.
