" Dear Dr. Bakememeier,
I attended the 4th annual summer
urologic conference in Jackson Hole earlier this month and I can't
tell you how excellent it was.
It is by far the best run and most
intellectually rewarding of any conference that I have
ever attended."

"Special meeting because of exceptional organization
and structure of conference.…..speakers and their topics were well selected
and almost the whole spectrum of urology was presented. Speakers were excellent
in their presentations and the talks reflected a high level of scientific value.
The whole week the auditorium got a kind of state of the art information because
of up dated presentations of each speaker in their special field of urology……The
open and interactive discussion of pros and cons during the critique panel with
the experts and the auditorium provides a very intense atmosphere for an exchange
of ideas."

I also truly had a good time serving on the Critique Panel and having the opportunity
to discuss a variety of points with Dr. Segura and other members of the presentation
panel." …….We "only scratched the surface of all the
excellent activities available at Jackson Hole"

"
The Jackson Hole Urologic Conference once again combined an outstanding educational
format in a spectacular venue……The….meeting combines an
internationally recognized faculty with an equally renowned critique panel.
Faculty members
present a series of papers in their areas of expertise, and the critique
panel members are afforded sufficient time to critically analyze and evaluate
the
presentations."

" What can I say! I have always heard about the meeting. It was everything
that I had hoped for. A one week meeting made me feel as though I not only had
a
week's vacation away from the office but I came away with a meaningful collection
of intellectual stimulation, new material that will be applicable to my practice
and reassurances that I am, despite having been in practice over twenty years,
continuing to practice in the mainstream of urology. The new friends that
I made will be valued, and I look forward to returning to the meeting as often
as possible."

I am writing to thank you for inviting me to what has turned
out to be the best experience of my entire urological career. ……..We have had
a tremendous opportunity to mingle with some of the great minds in academic
general urology. But we have also had a lot of fun meeting the regulars who
come to the meeting year after year. …..So well organized. It will
continue to be the benchmark that I will use to judge similar meetings.
