About AIDS

How can I make my HIV treatment as easy as possible – fewer pills, fewer side-effects? That is the evening's question at a free Dinner With the Doctor on Tuesday, Oct. 11. Bob Wallace, MD, will be here from Atlanta to examine how, working with the latest advances in HIV therapy, treatment can be made easier and simpler. Multiple studies show that the simpler the regimen, the greater the chance of success in sticking with it – and keeping HIV in check.

With almost 20 years experience treating HIV, Dr. Wallace is one of the most respected physician-presenters in the country, much in demand for client education, as well as for major professional conferences. He attends most of the conferences around the world, so he gets the opportunity not only to keep up with breaking developments, but also to network with his fellow HIV docs. Presently, Dr. Wallace is associate director of medical affairs at pharmaceutical manufacturer Gilead Sciences, the maker of Viread, Emtriva, and Truvada.

Dinner with Dr. Wallace will begin at 6pm at ASA, 7215 Cameron (just north of St. Johns). The event is free, thanks to the generous sponsorship of Gilead. If you'll let us know you're coming, we'll be glad to save you a seat; e-mail sandy.bartlett@asaustin.org or call ASA at 458-AIDS.
