Events & Programs

The events are the first in a growing series of wellness-focused events.

Home » Events & Programs

ACMS offers small, physician-focused programs that support professional judgment, reflection, and connection. These experiences complement confidential support services and create space for meaningful peer engagement.

Well-being is most effective when it emerges through experience. These programs create the conditions where focus, connection, and restoration occur organically.

Boundaries and Professional Judgement in Modern Practice

  • March 26, 2026
  • 6:00–8:00 PM
  • Cadence Speakeasy | 2400 Smallman Street, Pittsburgh
  • Let's explore how clinicians make boundary and access decisions when there’s no clear rulebook. The conversation surfaces how peers approach common gray areas, helping participants sharpen judgment, gain language for difficult calls, and feel less alone in decisions they already carry. Moderated. No slides. Dinner included.

From Garden to Table

  • June 17th, 2026
  • 6:00–8:00 PM
  • Phipps Convervatory | 1 Schenley Dr, Pittsburgh
  • This hands-on cooking experience provides sustained, skill-based focus with visible outcomes, a sharp contrast to the abstract and fragmented nature of clinical work. Working through a shared task from start to finish reinforces competence, sequencing, and attention in a way that is hard to achieve alone or in short bursts at home. The value lies in uninterrupted process and shared execution.
