Each year, Houston Methodist partners with community leaders and volunteers to host signature events.

Town Hall Conversations

Virtual Town Hall Conversations
Beginning in April of 2020, Dr. Marc Boom has hosted Town Hall Conversations with other leading Houston Methodist physicians, researchers and clinician-scientists. These conversations seek to answer the most pressing questions from the community on subjects ranging from testing, treatments and possible vaccines to the latest innovations and how COVID-19 affects patients needing hospital services such as diagnostic and surgical procedures.
