Please join us for the Fifth Annual Lebanon Valley Cardiovascular Symposium on Saturday May 31, 2014. It has been very well received by a broad swath of care providers in Pennsylvania. We continue to increase our attendance and registrant feedback was overwhelmingly positive! As you can see, we have a great lineup of faculty and topics for this year’s Symposium.
The 2014 Symposium (Saturday May 31, 2014) will feature Dr. Henry Halperin (2010 AHA Distinguished Scientist Award Recipient, Johns Hopkins University) and faculty from the University of Pennsylvania, Lancaster General Hospital, WellSpan (York Hospital) and The Good Samaritan Hospital. Topics will include Outpatient Management of CHF, Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy, Novel Oral Anticoagulants for Atrial Fibrillation, and more. This year we will also have two of our Interventionalists (Drs. Tadajweski and Fugate) debating radial versus femoral artery access for cardiac catheterizations.
The Symposium has grown into one of the largest Cardiovascular Symposiums in Pennsylvania and we will again be cosponsored by the PA Chapter of the American College of Cardiology! The Symposium offers 5.25 AMA Category 1 CME credits) and registration is free at www.gshleb.org/lvcs.

Dr. Williams obtained his undergraduate degree with a double major in Biomedical and Electrical Engineering at Vanderbilt University. He was then awarded a Keck Fellowship for graduate school at the University of Pittsburgh where he obtained his Master’s degree in Bioengineering.
Dr. Williams went on to obtain his medical degree at Drexel University in Philadelphia and completed 5 years of Fellowship training in both Cardiovascular Diseases and Clinical Cardiac Electrophysiology at the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center.
His unique background and extensive knowledge of both engineering and cardiology have earned Dr. Williams many accolades in both clinical and academic settings. He’s published over 20 manuscripts and abstracts in the field of cardiology/electrophysiology and has received awards from both the American College of Cardiology Foundation and the National Institutes of Health.
Dr. Williams started in the Invasive Electrophysiology Laboratory at The Good Samaritan Hospital in 2008 and the Heart Rhythm Center published outcomes on pacemaker and defibrillator implantations as well as the safety and efficacy of high frequency jet ventilation during EP studies with ablation under his direction. He is Chair of the Quality Committee at the Florida Chapter of the American College of Cardiology.
