2026 SDSMA Annual Leadership Conference: Advancing Patient Care Through Lifestyle Medicine
Get ready for the 2026 SDSMA Annual Leadership Conference at the Catlin Hotel (formerly the Hilton Garden Inn) Downtown Sioux Falls! Explore the future of clinical practice through the lens of lifestyle medicine.
The conference is a benefit of your SDSMA membership – there is no registration fee for members (ticket purchase required evening awards dinner).
Join us for the day as we focus on a comprehensive, evidence-based approach to applying lifestyle medicine to today’s health challenges. This conference, for South Dakota physicians whether they are in primary care, surgery, or a subspecialty, will allow attendees to explore practical methods for integrating lifestyle medicine fundamentals into daily clinical practice to improve patient outcomes. The information will provide physicians with actionable strategies to enhance long-term outcomes and elevate their approach to preventive care.
Additionally, network with colleagues, have the opportunity to present an Open Forum topic to the SDSMA Policy Council, and attend the poster session where USD Sanford School of Medicine students and residents will highlight their work.
In the evening, the banquet is a time when the leadership and achievements of outstanding physicians are celebrated, medical student scholarship recipients are recognized by the SDSMA Foundation, and the incoming SDSMA President, Ben Meyerink, MD will be sworn in.
