Join us virtually or in-person to learn the latest advancements in the use of regional anesthesia in spine surgery. Co-Directed by W. Michael Bullock, MD PhD and Alok D Sharan, MD MHCDS.

This Hybrid course will be offered live with options to attend in-person at the state of the art Pacira Innovation and Training Center at Tampa or virtually. Virtual attendees based in USA will also have the option of joining with virtual reality technology.

Doc Social is pleased to partner with Immertec on offering this course via 3D Virtual Reality Technology.  For individuals who sign up for this option we will send you Oculus glasses prior to the course.  The glasses will have software uploaded to view the live program using immersive technology.  This option allows you to “feel” as if you are participating in-person in the course. Oculus glasses can be mailed to USA addresses.
