The 2025 Bethune Roundtable Conference will be hosted by the University of Calgary’s Department of Surgery, one of the largest surgical departments in North America. Calgary is a vibrant city nestled in the heart of the prairies with the majestic Rocky Mountains just a short drive away. Calgary ranks one of the top Canadian cities for cultural diversity.
