The 2023 TPMF Bandera Meeting & Resident Case Contest
Provides a Great Experience!


The Texas Podiatric Medical Foundation 2023 Bandera Meeting & Resident Case Contest was held April 21-23 at the Mayan Ranch in Bandera, TX.

It was a great interactive meeting and great memories shared of doctors who passed away this past year. Thank you to all of the speakers who donated their time and the sponsors who helped make this meeting possible. Thank you to the attendees for your input.
