Comments from participants

The overview and the opportunity to ask questions were so valuable. I learned from both.

There was high level of detail on all aspects of the disease. Much more detail than is available in a typical doctor’s visit.

It was very uplifting to be at this event and know you are part of a larger team working together.

First, the information content of the talk. Then, the opportunity to meet and talk with others. I would like such opportunities more often.

Loved it. Great info & talking with other people with RA.
