Annual Scientific Meeting on Post-Surgical Pain 2026

The 2026 meeting is at Le Méridien Tampa, The Courthouse, in Tampa, Florida.

The organizer identifies providers, students, and leaders from surgery among the meeting's audience.

It is most useful for surgeons, anesthesiologists and pain physicians who follow patients after they leave the operating room, since the agenda covers the whole arc from hospital pain control to community transitional care and outpatient chronic pain, and draws emergency medicine and rehabilitation clinicians alongside them. Clinicians who want a broad anesthesiology or general pain medicine meeting with many unrelated topics will get less from it, because the organizer positions it as a single-subject gathering created to fill a gap left by larger conferences; students and trainees are listed among attendees, so it also works as an entry point to the field.

Attendees at clinical scientific meetings usually wear business casual, such as slacks or skirts with a collared shirt or blouse, and a light layer for cold conference rooms.
