AMA (WA) Clinical Conference 2010

Visit the Cradle of Medicine in Greece

The AMA (WA) is delighted to announce the destination and dates for the 2010 Clinical Conference. Conference hosts Professor Paul Skerritt and Dr Rosanna Capolingua will accompany delegates on an exclusive 10 day tour of Greece from September 6-15, 2010.

Conference delegates will experience the history, culture and beauty of Greece, visiting Athens, Rhodes, the island of Kos and the historic coastal town of Lindos. A feature of the Conference is a very special celebration in which delegates can re-affirm their Hippocratic Oath at the Asklepeion of Kos - the home of Hippocrates and the Hippocratic Oath. We have obtained permission from the Archaeological Authority to conduct this ceremony - a once-in-a-lifetime experience.

Return flights from Perth to Athens have been secured with Emirates and delegates will stay in luxury hotels in Athens and Rhodes.

Highlights of this year's Conference tour include:

• The Hippocratic Oath ceremony on the island of Kos - "the cradle of medicine"
• The sacred shrine of Asklepeios - the God of Healing
• The Greek Houses of Parliament where we experience the pomp and ceremony of the traditional changing of the guard
• The Parthenon - the most awe-inspiring of the structures on the Acropolis
• The new Acropolis museum featuring the glass-floored gallery of the Slopes of the Acropolis
• The picturesque streets and traditional cafes and tavernas of the Plaka - Athens' oldest quarter
• The medieval town in Rhodes city - one of the best preserved sites in Europe
• Private charter cruise to the historically significant coastal town of Lindos
• A journey of the 2400 year history of wine making in Rhodes
• Luxury hotel accommodation in Athens and Rhodes

Having enjoyed the very successful AMA (WA) Clinical Conferences in Shanghai, Istanbul and Egypt, we look forward to joining with former and new delegates in Greece.
