Events

Medicats has a variety of event types, including physician/medical speakers, community impact events for volunteers, and hands-on clinics. We use Instagram to post the next upcoming event, so be sure to join us there.

Speakers

Here are some of the many amazing speakers we’ve had at Medicats meetings, either in-person or via Zoom. Some speakers have even joined us multiple times!
