Thank you to all who attended our conference, below are some of the comments submitted from the attendees
Thanks so much! The conference was well done!
Well done ENCSGNA! Great conference, as always
Thank you for the great educational experience! I was also very pleased that you kept a virtual option as staffing challenges have prevented me from traveling away to some of the larger conferences.
Enjoyed it. Thank you for all your hard work.
Good topics
Great conference thank you, I appreciated the virtual component
Thank you for the virtual component , since I was unable to attend in person . Thanks for being willing to combine the NC chapters of SGNA.
Thank you! Excellent speakers and topics pertinent to current practice. Thankful for virtual option.
Excellent conference. Thank you everyone for all your hard work
It was very informative. I cannot wait for the annual conference in Arizona
Virtual option is wonderful. I'm on call and couldn't have gone if in person only. Thank you for organizing.
Very informative
The online option is great and convenient. Please, consider to keep offering this opportunity in the future.
Thank you to ALL people involved. Was a significant educational experience.
Outstanding

The AV portion of the conference was an unfortunate one, I think the videos from the presentations would have been valuable. Other than that I think the conference was a hit!!! Very interesting with great talent presenting.
Great presentations! Having a virtual option was perfect for those of us that live farther away. I learned a lot of great information that is pertinent to the procedures we perform at work as well as procedures that we don't do at our small community hospital.
Virtual connections was extremely difficult. Hope next will be better. Overall great.
Another excellent conference!!! Speakers were interesting and gave relevant information. Really good panel discussion. Thanks for the Virtual offering. Noticed nine states represented besides NC.
Thank you for allowing us to host. Would be interested in hosting again in spring if interested just would like at least 6 months to plan.
Great speakers and topics!
I thoroughly enjoyed the content of the conference.
The food was AMAZING. Venue was beautiful. There were several technical difficulties that the speakers handled very well. I really wish I could have watched the videos in the emergency presentation.
Loving virtual conferences!
Very poor internet connections Friday event was so bad . The connection and the fact that the other participants could not be muted made it difficult to understand and participate/listen to a lecture that I really wanted to listen to.
Aside from the few technical difficulties Friday night, I sincerely appreciate all the effort that went into presenting the virtual aspect of your conference. There were many from out of state which shows there is a need for this type of learning. Thank you for doing this. Well done. I hope you continue with the virtual option for your future meetings.
Thank you for making this event available virtually and cost effective.
The Zoom quality was a struggle which was a shame because the content was soo good!
My first Endoscopy conference. Thanks!
Enjoyed the conference
Was not able to scroll the vendors during break. Able to listen to Olympus for a short period of time, than lost volume.
Wonderful conference with a great group of people. Looking forward to the next event.
Friday the computer and sound needed some work. It was much better on Saturday.
Keeping the schedule going and not having to wait for appointed times as things can go over and it’s better to be done on time then go over.
Once again a wonderful conference. I know there was some technical difficulties but everyone handle troubleshooting well. Please don't let that detour the virtual option. It allow GI professionals from across the country to come together. Live GI hours are difficult to find. Many of us are still battling staffing crisis and it is difficult to travel at this time. I am so excited about WNC SGNA joining.
The topics were on point and presenters were excellent. Very well organized.
Friday night was difficult with audio problems. I appreciate the efforts. thanks for the committee and hosts for arranging this. The speakers were really good.
I was looking forward to the PEG presentation but was very disappointed in the content and presenter. The other speakers were very good.
Disappointed that some of the videos were not presented due to technical difficulties
lots of good information---really liked information on last three speakers on Saturday afternoon
I enjoy the conference and I feel everyone plays a great part in hosting one. I just wish that now that we can do it virtual, there is someone that is tech sappy to undergo the tech issues.
It ran way too long.
It is exciting news that both regions will combine...
Beautiful location for the conference. Good line up of speakers. Friday night was great...Betty & Dr Forester did excellent jobs through any technical difficulties. Saturday had a good line up of speakers. The PEG tube presentation was hard to follow and the speaker did not seem well prepared, felt information regarding endo roles wasn't fully met. Vinetta did an excellent job with making esophageal manometry easy to understand and learn what to look for as an endoscopy nurse. Dr McGarr's presentation felt very biased to a specific vendor despite no disclosures were noted and having the rep in the room to answer questions felt intimidating. Overall a good conference and good learning.
so great working with you! great job! joining SGNA on Friday!
It was good to be able to attend an SGNA conference again.
I did not like the round table set up. It was hard for everyone to see and be seated at the table. The chairs were uncomfortable.
I learned alot. I like that the information is relative to any role in the GI unit!
Fantastic informative conference
Immense thanks to Carolina East Medical Center, Cathy Bauer, President of ENCSGNA, fellow Board Members, kind and attentive employees of Doubletree Inn in New Bern, NC and all who attended this excellent conference in person or virtually! Each person contributed to making our regional GI conference an educational and enjoyable success!
Enjoyed the virtual conference. Presenters were informative. Found the round table discussion on TJC enlightening.
it was a great conference
enjoyed conference, especially the last 3 presenters on saturday
Great conference, felt well looked after being in the virtual audience. Thank you!!
Speakers were great. Very informative
Very informative and great presenters and thanks for convenience of virtual attendance. Once technical difficulties were worked out conference was great.
Absolutely LOVED this conference. Great information, beautiful location, and awesome hosts.
Great conference! Loved having it so close and in such a beautiful area. Thanks New Bern!!
Appreciate everyone's time spent organizing the conference. The only area for improvement would be better scheduling of speakers so that the Saturday session does not go past 5:00.
Excellent conference!! The venue was great! All the speakers did an excellent job. The panel was fun to participate in.
Thank you for providing a virtual option! Greatly appreciated!
Utilization of time better.
Very nice conference. Very detailed. I enjoyed it.
