Socials for Science in San Francisco - for Surgeons and Physicians

Socials for Science - San Francisco
Career Pivots, LinkedIn Strategy & Meaningful Connections

For the first time in 2026, PlansConnect is bringing its signature Socials for Science networking experience to San Francisco.

Modeled after the successful New Orleans series, this event features a roundtable-style discussion designed to spark meaningful, candid conversation around career pivots and career transitions, with a practical focus on how surgeons and physicians can use LinkedIn more strategically when exploring nonclinical opportunities.

📍 Venue: Ula Restaurant & Tapas

450 Post Street, San Francisco (near Union Square)

📅 Date: Saturday, March 28, 2026

⏰ Time: 3:00 – 5:00 PM

A table will be reserved for our group, creating a relaxed and engaging environment for discussion and connection. Appetizers are included, with vegetarian options available.

This affordable, small-group event is moderated by Dr. Swati Shah, MD, MPH, Founder of PlansConnect—a physician who has walked the talk when it comes to career evolution. Professionals at all stages are welcome, including those in training, active clinical practice, or already working in nonclinical roles.

Whether you’re just starting to explore what’s next or actively navigating a transition, this is a unique opportunity to:

• Build genuine connections with like-minded healthcare professionals
• Learn practical LinkedIn strategies in real time
• Ask questions in a safe, supportive, non-sales environment
• Expand your professional network—without pressure or pretense
  

🎁 Bonus: Registration includes access to an exclusive LinkedIn group, allowing the conversation and connections to continue after the event.
