We successfully held our first Red River Renal symposium on October 5, 2019. The goal of this symposium was to discuss new advances and complex issues in the management of dialysis access and general nephrology. The course provides an excellent forum for exchange of novel ideas and scientific concepts. The symposium was held here at the convention center in downtown Shreveport.
Dr. Alex Gomelsky attended the Kentucky Urological Meeting in October of 2019 as the Southeastern Section of the AUA Visiting Professor.
The Robert K. Womack Memorial Award for Excellence in Urology is given annually to a top graduating 4th year medical student going into Urology residency and voted on by the faculty.
The Department of Urology extends its congratulations to Zachary M. Connelly, PhD (MS-2), for receiving The Graduate Dean's Award from the School of Graduate Studies.
Dr. McCammon, the 2019 Society of Genitourinary Reconstructive Surgeons (GURS) Visiting Professor, gave outstanding lectures on January 27-28, 2020.
The Department of Urology welcomed Dr. David A. Ginsberg, Professor of Clinical Urology at the Keck School of Medicine of USC and Chief of Urology at Rancho Los Amigos National Rehabilitation Center, as their inaugural Robert K. Womack Visiting Professor.
