Wisconsin Bone Club (WBC) was established in 1995 by clinicians specialized in treating osteoporosis and bone disease from the Marshfield Clinic, Medical College of Wisconsin and University of Wisconsin-Madison, with the intent of fostering a provider network and exchanging new information in the field. This has evolved to an annual meeting where a national/international expert is invited to speak along with regional experts. WBC has recently expanded to include a dedicated FLS focused group. We welcome all interested health professionals in Wisconsin and beyond to join us in this ongoing collegial networking and educational venue.
Given the challenges of 2021 in-person meetings we replaced this annual meeting with a seminar series delivered in virtual format. Sessions are planned for summer and fall 2021 concluding in fall 2022.
Here is one of Bone Club’s most recent presentations:
