Message from the President:
Elumalai Appachi, MD
Dear Friends,
I stand humbly in front of you and seek your support and best wishes to have another fantastic year for AIPNO. I am anticipating an exciting year full of fun activities and social functions, while we continue our tradition of outstanding charity work.
I am really looking forward to working with our brilliant executive committee to upkeep the integrity AIPNO bolsters. I am open to suggestions and constructive criticisms. I am available to our community and friends, and will always be there when you need me. As an organization we will support our members’ special interests and support educational and charitable activities.
The foundation of our organization is a strong membership base. We will actively recruit younger generations of physicians. I request all our friends and colleagues in the teaching hospitals to recruit fellows and residents to become members of AIPNO. Most importantly we shall try to contact any new physician of Indian origin who moves to our region. It is very important to always showcase our organization’s activities in order to encourage new physicians to join.
I request our senior members to mentor our new members, allowing them to become well-acquainted with the organization. Let us all strive to make our organization strong and vibrant.
Happy and Prosperous New Year to all
