Press Release
Evoke Pharma to Participate in Gastroenterology and Hepatology Advanced Practice Providers (GHAPP) Annual Conference
“As a meeting sponsor for four consecutive years, we are excited to engage with the advanced practice providers community at the 7th Annual GHAPP conference, a unique event dedicated to nurse practitioners and physician assistants who play a pivotal role in managing patients with gastrointestinal (GI) disorders, including patients with gastroparesis,” said Matt D’Onofrio, CEO of
Evoke Pharma’s management and commercial team will host a booth at the conference to facilitate discussions with attendees.

I continue to observe this with patients being prescribed GIMOTI in my practice,” Demittre Sorenson PA-C,
