RACS NSW SURGEONS MONTH

Each November, RACS NSW celebrates the achievements of our surgeons.

This recognition and celebration has become much more significant this year and especially so for the ENT community.

ENT surgeons have been a highlight at Surgeon's evening in the past years, with the prestigious Graham Coupland Lecture being given by Dr Gillian Dunlop 2018 and A.Prof Kelvin Kong in 2019. This year Prof Raymond Sacks will be awarded the Educator of Merit award and the Graham Coupland lecture will be on the head and neck cancer surgery.  

Secretary of health, Elizabeth Koff will the guest of honour at this formal evening, with members of the NSW health ministry and CEO's of our public and private hospitals in attendance, to show their appreciation for the Surgical workforce.

RACS NSW State committee hope you will join us with your partners and family.
