2010 MONTHLY MEETINGS

The Seattle Surgical Society meets six times a year at The Rainier Club located 820 4th Avenue in downtown Seattle. This historical venue has been an integral component of the Seattle offering a classy environment as well as a good buffet dinner that entices members to come out on a Monday evening to listen to speakers discuss meaningful medical topics and then an entertaining after dinner talks.
