The 2022 AAP National Conference brought together thousands of health care professionals from all over the United States to discuss and educate health professionals on the important, relevant and modern updates that have happened in pediatrics. This year’s conference was Oct. 7-11, 2022 in Anaheim, California.
Children’s Minnesota was not only excited to have speakers at the conference, but also to have a booth in the exhibit hall, staffed with a recruiter and our kid experts throughout the weekend. We were at booth #1759 where we talked with professionals about how Children’s Minnesota can help nurture healthy, happy, amazing kids.
