2007 is a year of excitement when we could witness the foundation of the society, a golden era for us to strive for further advancement in hand rehabilitation. It is most thankful to the genuine support from our buddy companion, the Hong Kong Society for Surgery of the Hand, and the encouragement from all our colleagues that foster its successful establishment.
For years, we have been cooperating with hand surgeons in many educational activities, aiming at enriching the levels of our professional practice and updating our knowledge on the advancing technologies in hand surgery and rehabilitation. In order to uphold this direction as one of our missions, we’ll try our best to realize through organizations of regular educational seminars and clinical workshops, creating a communication platform for us to share and move forward.
Not to disappoint you, we have already planned forward a series of functions to be carried out. We will always offer privilege to our members during their participations and you are welcome to join at any time. With the construction of our website, you are welcome to visit and get in touch of what new function is going up, and of those functions previous held as well.
I am honored to have the opportunity to contribute during the founding years together with the cooperation of our council members. But the most important being your continual support, which is definitely precious and indispensable in the succession of our society in the future.
