This year, PDSA will host its 24th annual update on immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) for patients, caregivers and the medical community in San Antonio, Texas July 26-28. This year’s patient conference will take place at The Westin Riverwalk in downtown San Antonio. Each year the ITP conference provides opportunities to hear the latest information about ITP, meet others who are coping and living with ITP and receive answers to your medical questions. You will also have the opportunity to ask your questions to PDSA’s Medical Advisors, who are some of the most experienced ITP doctors in the world. You don’t want to miss out on this tremendous opportunity to hear and talk with these world-renowned experts.
In addition to the educational program and social events, the conference will feature several small group sessions to give you an opportunity to get to know other patients and caregivers in an intimate environment. They will also offer programs for children at our Kids Kamp for children ages 5-12. Like conferences in the past, this year’s conference will provide a separate track for teens and young adults.
