Mission and Purpose

PCSA is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization established in 1925, to advance the science and practice of surgery.

We hold an Annual Scientific Meeting every February over President’s Day weekend to keep our member surgeons up-to-date on the latest in medical research and clinical practice. High quality presentations cover general and specialty surgery and AMA PRA Category 1 Credit™ is offered. Most of our presentations are published each year in the Archives of Surgery that reaches 22,500 readers in 85 countries each month.

Members/Attendees

Our Association’s members are community and academic surgeons who reside in the Pacific Coast area. Members come from one of four Caucuses: Southern California, Northern California, Oregon/Hawaii, and Washington/British Columbia/Alaska.

Total attendance at the 2008 PCSA Annual Meeting was 318 with 210 surgeons.

Exhibits

The exhibit area at the PCSA Annual Meeting is an integral part of the meeting. This is where members have an opportunity to learn about your products or services. Continental breakfasts, refreshments breaks and the reception on Friday evening will be in this area to assure maximum exposure to the attendees.

By participating in the Annual Meeting, you will have a number of opportunities to interact with our surgeons and broaden your exposure to PCSA members by taking part in the social activities, showcasing your products and services during the exhibits, and participating in the Industry Support Luncheon with the leadership of PCSA.
