The Balance Conference has attracted women physicians from throughout the country since the first
conference in 1991. A highly interactive multi-disciplinary program for a totally physician audience,
participants represent a wide variety of primary care and subspecialty practice settings, ranging
from solo to hospital and managed care plans to academia.
The CME program includes sessions that focus on personal skills and professional growth as well
as clinical topics relevant to various patient populations. Afternoon breakouts allow attendees to
reflect on the complexities of patient care and to share first-hand experiences.
Activities
This conference is distinguished from other meetings by incorporating health habits --”walking the
walk”. Each year there is a choice of optional sessions that might include meditation, Tai Chi, water
aerobics and other movement activities, as well as opportunities to hike and bike the mountains, or
walk the trails. Children and families enjoy day camp and mountain experiences.
Conference Benefits
We openly discuss ideas and challenges in a safe environment at the conference. We can explore
and support turning points in our lives and practices. Opportunities continue throughout the year for
positive networking about clinical issues, lessons learned, and personal support on the Balance
website. For members, the added benefit of a mentor program allows one-on-one communication.
Annual date
The Balance conference is the second weekend in August in Breckenridge, Colorado.
