Nominations for 2010 SDOMA board members needed ASAP: It's that time of year again. Nominations need to be received ASAP, so that we can meet the obligations of our by-laws and our new officers can begin their terms of office at the January 2010 meeting. According to our by-laws the following offices are up for election; Secretary (one-year term), Treasurer (one-year term) and Vice-President (one year as Vice-President, one year as President, and one year as immediate past president for a total of three years). To volunteer or place names in nomination contact Jim Cox at 619-579-2946. SDOMA NEEDS YOU! IF WE DO NOT MAINTAIN AN APPROPRIATE ROSTER OF ELECTED OFFICERS WE WILL BE IN DANGER OF SACRIFICING OUR CALIFORNIA CORPORATE STATUS.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION REGARDING OUR MEETING LOCATION: This month we will be back in the main hospital building. Classroom are located in the basement, across from the cafeteria. Follow the signs when exiting the elevator.

DO Looking for Practice Opportunity: My name is Dr. Bryan Hawkins, DO. I recently completed Family Medicine Residency training at University of New England College of Osteopathic Medicine and am a graduate of UNECOM. I will complete my Neuromuscular Medicine (OMM) Fellowship training at Downey Regional Medical Center in Los Angeles in June of 2010. I'm looking for any employment opportunity in San Diego County to practice family medicine and osteopathic manipulation including non-surgical orthopedic and office based procedures. I'm a former San Diego County resident looking to move back. You may contact me, 626-256-6182 at home if interested. Thank you.
