The 2009 All-Alaska Medical Conference was a huge success! The Alaska Academy of Physician Assistants would like to thank all the speakers who took time out of their busy schedules to share their knowledge and expertise. The AKAPA would also like to thank all of the event sponsors and all of the attendees! We hope to see you again next year!
