Scleroderma Patient Education Days

The San Diego Scleroderma Patient Education Day is a dedicated day of learning, support, and community for those living with scleroderma, their loved ones, and caregivers. The event features expert-led presentations, resources, and interactive sessions focused on the latest treatments, research updates, and practical tools for managing life with scleroderma. Attendees will have the opportunity to connect with healthcare professionals, ask questions, and build connections with others in the scleroderma community.

Morning refreshments and lunch from Panera Bread will be served, including mixed fruit and vegetable salads for gluten-free guests. If you have other dietary restrictions, please bring your own food.
