PRESENT Virtual Biomechanics and Surgery Conference
The PRESENT Biomechanics and Surgical Virtual Conference is the latest CME programming by the PRESENT Team. Attendees of our conferences have been telling us for years in post-event surveys that what they most need and want is better biomechanics CME education. Not theoretical or basic science biomechanics – they are already experts in that. They want practical, “how do I help this patient” biomechanics. They want to better understand how to control the position and motion (kinematics) and forces (kinetics) around their patients’ feet, for their athletic patients, their patients who just want to walk pain free and most importantly, their surgical patients.
Approved for 8 CECH Credits for DPMs



Harold Schoenhaus, DPM, FACFAS
Conference Chairman
Our goal with this Conference is to present easy to absorb biomechanical wisdom for both the non-surgical and surgical practices. This intensive One Day Conference will focus on mechanical concepts for conservative control to control symptoms as well as determining criteria for surgical planning and post-op rehabilitation. Those attending this Conference will go back to the office on Monday morning with a heightened understanding of modern foot and ankle biomechanics and how to apply it immediately to improve the care of their patients.

- Demonstrate the use of biomechanics in the surgical and non-surgical patient
- Identify indications for orthotics for post-op control and in the non-surgical patient
- Demonstrate how surgery can influence foot function and why
- Demonstrate proper technique to maximize patient outcomes
