Pain and PM&R Societies

[pmr10]

Hello, if you were to pick two societies to join for the most useful education, etc., which would you join?

Also, if you were to pick two, would you make one in your primary specialty (PM&R in my case) and one in pain? Or would you just pick two pain societies?

Thanks!

SIS + whoever's meets in Orlando if you have a family, Vegas if single.

I'd say most things (i.e. neuromodulation, minimally-invasive spine, etc.). Minimal bread and butter PMR apart from general musculoskeletal medicine and interventions as well.

do you have to waste spend the money on joining a pain society?

Hospital buys it.

Lobelsteve is spot on. My practice (not hospital-based) offered to pay for membership for two societies.

Why join any?

If it is to get the journal, I would join AAPM and your primary specialty.

If it is just to join, I would join ASPN because I know Alane Costanzo and she sits on the board.
