This past weekend, nearly 1,000 physicians, clinical and functional leaders, and exhibitors gathered for Texas Oncology's Annual Physician Meeting, a celebration of our 40th anniversary and the legacy of breakthroughs behind it.
Steven Paulson, M.D., President, CEO and Chairman, opened with this year's theme: "Grounded in Our Promise. Innovating for the Future." A special anniversary panel, moderated by Catherine Swick, SVP, brought together Dr. Paulson, Dr. Ekery, Dr. Mennel, Dr. Taylor, Ernie Sims, Managing Director, and Tammy Sayers, Chief of Operations, for a look back at 40 years of progress.
We were especially honored by the presence of founder Mike Reese, M.D., whose impact helped build Texas Oncology's first 40 years, and continues to shape the next 40 as we grow as the nation's leading cancer care team.
We were also inspired by Pulitzer Prize-winning author Siddhartha Mukherjee, M.D., who shared powerful insights on advancements in cancer care and the evolving role of AI.
The energy throughout the event was palpable, and the focus was clear: our patients remain at the center of everything we do, supported by the best team built to fight cancer.
