Meeting Information



Meeting Friday, June 26, 2009, 1:00 pm:
  • This month, we are pleased to have Mr. Joseph A. Voss L. Ac. as our featured speaker. Mr. Voss is an acupuncturist, who graduated magna cum laude from Pacific College of Oriental Medicine and completed post-graduate studies in Beijing, China. He will describe and demonstrate the art of acupuncture; and discuss the benefits of its use in the treatment of various physical conditions, including stress, neck and back injuries, allergies, infertility, addiction, sleep disorders, weight loss, and arthritis. We know Mr. Voss’ presentation will be not only interesting and informative; but, it may also give you a different perspective on the use of acupuncture for your own physical conditions.


Meeting Friday, July 24, 2009, 1:00 pm:
  • In any operation, it is necessary to monitor and periodically evaluate the effectiveness of established procedures and practices. Such is the case regarding the care, education, and treatment of new ostomates prior to, during, and after surgery. To this end, Brian Bowden, Past President and current Board Member of our support group, conducted a survey to evaluate the effectiveness of area medical professionals and hospitals in meeting the needs of new ostomates. Brian will present and discuss the results of this survey at this month’s meeting. We invite you to come hear these results and to participate in the discussion about them.


Meeting Friday, August 28, 2009, 1:00 pm:
  • It is indeed our privilege this month to welcome Dr. Patrick W. Linson MD, MPH, Medical Director and Radiation Oncologist at Cyberknife of Southern California. Dr. Linson serves as Department Chair, Oncology Services in Tri-City Medical Center, and as Consultant to Palomar Medical Center and to Scripps Memorial Hospitals in La Jolla and Encinitas. He will give a presentation on Cyberknife technology, a very sophisticated form of radiosurgery which destroys tumors with highly precise beams of radiation. We’re all looking forward to what promises to be a very interesting program.
