Upcoming Meetings:


October 24th, 2024

The next meeting of the SAMHS will be held on Thursday, 24th of October at the Dulwich Community Centre, 14 Union St, Dulwich at 6:00 pm.

Our next meeting will be held on Thursday, 24th October 2024, and we are pleased to welcome Associate Professor David Cherry AM as our speaker. He will be presenting on "Pain Management".

Please note: We are returning to our usual venue at the Dulwich Community Centre, 14 Union Street, Dulwich.

Associate Professor Cherry served as the Director of the Pain Management Unit at Flinders Medical Centre from 1982 to 2008. He has also held leadership roles in the Australian Pain Society, serving as Secretary, Vice President, and President between 1982 and 1996. Trained as an Anaesthetist, his career path led him to investigate pain management, a field that was under-researched at the start of his career but has made significant advances since. Outside of medicine, he has represented both Australia and South Australia in golf, and South Australia in bridge. He also runs a vineyard, although he claims no expertise in wine production or tasting!
