What participants said about the 2008 course:

"I have found the topics functional medicine, fascinating. It makes so much sense. Traditional medicine is missing a huge piece of the total picture. This conference will definitely change my practice, my personal life, as well as my family’s life. I cannot wait for the next conference."
Debbie Dooley, RN, FNP

"This was the most informative conference I have ever been to in my PA career. I loved the focus on prevention and natural ways of healing. Not the normal Pharmaceutical sponsored lectures filling us with information on their products."
Dan Sherman PA-C

"This is information that I knew had to be out there, but I did not know where to look. It makes sense on so many levels without being “woo-woo” or “fluffy. ” I look forward to adding this way of thinking to my practice."
Rachel McElvain, PA-C

"I came to the conference for CME at a beach only. Little did I know that I would attend every lecture. I’ve been a PA for 28 years and was knocked over by this information. I’ve done my patients a disservice by not learning this sooner. "

“…these women kick butt”

"A positive and progressive approach to medicine that all clinicians should embrace. WE need to stop treating the symptoms and get people to understand the cause. "

“The most awesome, eye-opening and applicable info a provider can be exposed to. This wealth of information can only improve clinical practice and patient care. Every practitioner should hear this info. "
