Workshop in Grand River View Hotel

ORL Club of HUSM, together with MMA and Solvay Pharma had recently organized a Balance Disorder Workshop in Grand River View Hotel, Kota Bharu on the 12th of November 2009. 2 speakers from ORL Department of HUSM – Assoc Prof Dr Baharudin Abdullah and Dr Mohd Khairi Daud, were present to provide an update and educate doctors from primary care settings on office management of Vertigo. The workshop lasted 2 hours, and includes a demonstration on maneuvers used to examine and treat patients with benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV). At the end of the programme, participants were invited to a buffet dinner.

MMA offered 3 places for MMA medical student member from USM to attend the workshop. A student of ours even volunteered to be the model patient during the maneuver demonstration.
There will be a lot more such workshops and talks in the future. Be part of MMA to enjoy these and many more benefits!
