Recommendations for COVID-19 and Other Infectious Diseases

The American College of Gastroenterology endorses evidence-based public health measures designed to prevent and minimize the spread of infectious diseases. To support safely and responsibly convening at ACG’s educational programs, the College strongly encourages all in-person attendees at its meetings to follow national and local public health recommendations. While the College has convened meetings safely in the current environment, ACG cannot guarantee that an attendee will not be exposed to infectious diseases. Anyone experiencing symptoms should refrain from in-person attendance and instead participate in those programs available through virtual access. ACG will continue to monitor the situation and make necessary and appropriate adjustments.

Course Description:

Mark Your Calendar for the ACG/LGS Regional Postgraduate Course, February 24-26, 2023, at the Hilton New Orleans Riverside Hotel, and Join Colleagues in the “Big Easy.”

Join your colleagues at one of the fastest growing gastroenterology learning weekends in the country! Outstanding faculty in a collegial setting produce a conference that delivers the opportunity to learn, interact, and network with GI thought leaders and colleagues from around the nation. Nationally-recognized expert faculty will provide insight and a deeper understanding into these areas through a combination of didactic presentations and interactive discussions, including opportunities for one-on-one interaction with speakers. Attendees will leave the program ready to immediately implement the knowledge gained to improve their clinical practice. This program is designed for gastroenterologists, gastroenterology trainees, primary care physicians, nurses, physician assistants, and nurse practitioners interested in the latest information on diagnostic GI and state-of-the-art treatment of GI illnesses.

Guests at the spacious and centrally-located Hilton New Orleans Riverside will enjoy stunning views of both the Mississippi River and the city. Step outside the hotel and explore the Riverwalk, New Orleans Cruise Port, or nearby Harrah’s Casino. Ride the historic New Orleans streetcar lines for a unique and fun way to see the city, or enjoy a leisurely riverboat cruise at sunset.
