Why you need a new SVS tie or scarf

Of course patients did not avoid us because of our old logo and members read Vascular Specialist even though the font was old fashioned. However, these are important and exciting times and we want you to take part. We hope you will continue to read about your accomplishments and SVS achievements in print and electronic versions of Vascular Specialist. And yes, you may have to spring for a new SVS tie or scarf because the old ones are no longer current.
But, hopefully, the powers that be will recognize that a document or electronic media emblazoned with speaks authoritatively on behalf of vascular surgeons and our patients.

Dr. Samson is clinical professor of surgery (vascular) at Florida State University Medical School, is president of Mote Vascular Foundation, and an attending vascular surgeon, Sarasota (Fla.) Vascular Specialists.
