President’s Message
Dr. Harry Koo, PresidentWith my Presidential tenure now coming to a close, I would like to thank the Membership again for the honor and a privilege to serve as the Mid-Atlantic Section President over the last year.

During the course of 2010-2011, I have had the pleasure of working with the New England Section President, Dr. Timothy Hopkins, Dr. Adam Klausner (of the Mid-Atlantic Section) and Dr. Adam Feldman (of the New England Section) in organizing the upcoming Joint Meeting of our organizations taking place in Orlando.


Secretary's Message
MAAUA Secretary Louis Keeler III, MD I would like to begin by thanking all those who have contributed to the organization of next month’s Joint Meeting with the New England Section, AUA. In particular, thank you to all the authors, lecturers and industry supporters for being a part of the program – we are all looking forward to a great conference. We should all express a special thanks to Dr. Adam Klausner of the MAAUA and Dr. Adam Feldman of the NEAUA who served as Program Committee Co-Chairs this year and did an outstanding job assembling a program all urologists and allied professionals should enjoy.

Report of the Treasurer
Stanley Zaslau, MD I want to begin my brief report by thanking the Section for providing me the opportunity to serve as your Treasurer. The experience has been very rewarding and I look forward to continuing to serve in the coming year.

At the Business Meeting last year at Nemacolin, I provided members a report of the Section’s finances. I am happy to report that our finances remain in good order and that despite the slow recovering market, our investments are healthy; I thank Allegheny Investments for their strategic oversight of our portfolio.
