Hyperbaric Medicine


Our upcoming courses in Honduras and Fiji will include hyperbaric medicine updates. Pictured here are faculty and a participant from our May 2007 Bonaire Dive Medicine course. A huge success!

Dive Medicine Plans for 2008/9


Mountain & Marine Medicine is pleased to announce our most fabulous dive CME expedition ever - to Fiji. This course will take place in spring/early summer of 2009. It is a long time away, we agree. But it will take that much time to assemble the world's best faculty for a dive course in one of the worlds most diverse marine hotspots.
Planning for this course is underway. We will be accepting deposits for this course in early 2008.
If you can't wait that long, come along to Roatan Honduras this May!
Check out:
email Alan Lewis for details about the Honduras course.
