"The GulfThoracic Congress 2012 was my second time attending this meeting. The Congress continues to grow impressively in its size, attendance and exhibits while maintaining its personal appeal to its attendees. The quality of the faculty and their presentations is comparable, and in many cases, more personalized to attendees than many of its larger comparators that have been holding meetings for many decades. The ability to network and interact with the faculty, vendors and other attendees make the GulfThoracic Congress a critical source for knowledge acquisition and sharing in the region... a must attend for those dealing with patients with cardiopulmonary diseases and disorders. I look forward to hearing more about the Congress in 2013 and am sure it will be a first-class program and faculty"
