What We Do for You

Physician engagement is a cornerstone of SSC’s work - we need physicians participating, seeking leadership training and opportunities, and providing their knowledge and experience for us to succeed.

For ease of access and understanding, we have divided our work into three areas, each covering several initiatives as follows:
