Attendee Feedback

“We’ve listened to our attendees and altered our program to provide greater access to the hottest topics in the field,” said Perry Robins, MD, dermatologist and founder of ODAC. “Our sessions are led by expert faculty who provide the latest research and clinical updates on a variety of medical, surgical and aesthetic dermatology topics.”

The 2020 conference will be held January 17-20 at the JW Marriott in Orlando, Florida. ODAC, which started in 2003, attracts more than 650 dermatology physicians, residents, nurse practitioners and physician assistants each year.

The 2020 conference focuses on clinical dermatology updates, new treatments, new uses for old treatments, new product lines, changes to therapeutic guidelines, and hot and controversial topics. The interactive learning experience includes more than 20 workshops and more than 5 hours of live aesthetic demonstrations. In addition, ODAC offers hands-on sessions, live Q&As and opportunities to dialogue with leaders in the field. Up to 31 AMA PRA Category 1 Credits™ are available.
