Please join us to participate in a FREE live webinar!
We are very excited to invite YOU to participate in a FREE live webinar on May 8th! ANA webinars are normally a member benefit, but in observance of our annual ANAwareness Week, we are inviting both members and non-members to attend. Our topics are designed to cover key areas of interest relevant to AN patients, family and friends with plenty of time for questions and answers.
"Ask The Doctors: Answers to Your Questions About Acoustic Neuroma"
Tuesday, May 8, 2018
5:30 pm ET, 4:30 pm CT, 3:30 pm MT, 2:30 pm PT

ANA is partnering with the Acoustic Neuroma Association of Canada (ANAC) to present a panel of acoustic neuroma experts, ready to answer YOUR questions. This patient-centered format offers webinar attendees the rare opportunity to drive the topics we discuss through the questions they ask. Normally, our webinars are a member benefit, but in honor of ANAwareness Week, we invite anyone affected by AN to participate in this live webinar featuring physicians who specialize in the treatment of acoustic neuroma, using both surgery and radiation. Please submit your questions to Melissa Baumbick at communications@ANAUSA.org - we will get to as many as we can, taking a combination of those received prior to the event and those that come in during the webinar.
