Recipient Testimonials

“I'd like to thank the Aneurysm Committee for sending those of us from Interventional Radiology to the SVIN Conference in LA. There were such a broad range of topics covered, with specifics on aneurysms and the latest techniques in coiling, stenting and aftercare. Physicians from over 30 countries were in attendance and presented working trials alongside informative sessions. I cannot wait to see how our treatments progress. I am looking forward to being able to attend another conference in the future. It definitely gave me so many pearls to take home! Thank you again!”

“I was able to attend the Brain Injury Conference this fall. It was incredibly powerful and emotional as many survivors shared their stories. It was a very unique opportunity as a health care provider to not only go to educational sessions but to also to hear the impact of brain injuries on patients and families. I appreciate to have been given the opportunity to attend this amazing conference.”

“My experience at SVIN was great! I enjoyed listening to the live debates and having the opportunity to listen to the arguments and the data to support each side. The small individual courses were quite informative and they allowed me to better understand the larger picture when it comes to stroke and aneurysm patients and their care. I walked away from SVIN feeling more informed and educated about my field. I am very thankful and appreciative of the opportunity that I was given to experience SVIN!”
