Thank you all, especially Dr. Clifford Ko MD for creating this fantastic group & Bonnie Simpson Mason for giving me the opportunity to join you all. It is clear that the organizers and attendees of #ACSQSC23 are a special group who will continue to infuse equity into quality!

Sad to leave #ACSQSC23 (especially as that means exchanging 70F weather for 100F)! But, already planning for next year!! What do you want to learn about surgical quality and safety?? American College of Surgeons Clifford Ko MD
