As Dr. Samson, Chair of Endocrinology at Mayo Clinic – Jacksonville, becomes the next President of AACE, we should all be secure knowing that she is a tireless champion for AACE and is committed to continued growth and success of AACE and its members to result in healthier patients. Let us all strive to support her Presidency and AACE as we enter 2024.
Together we are AACE.
