LIFESTYLE MEDICINE TESTIMONIALS

In the 22 years since I graduated from medical school, nothing that I have matriculated through in terms of course work, conferences, or Continuing Medical Education has impacted the way I practice and my decision-making like the Lifestyle Medicine Course. The cadre of individuals that taught this course is absolutely second to none.

Many times I come away from conferences with lots of material but very little in the way of practical information that changes how I practice medicine on a daily basis. I have attended conferences sponsored by Harvard, the Mayo Clinic, and other prestigious institutions and these programs seem to offer academic, theoretical information that really just does not change my decision-making as a doctor on a daily basis.

The power of this course comes from the fact that I was making decisions differently the very next day after each session, and I had resources at my fingertips that I never had before. This defines a top-quality course and I deeply appreciate having gone through it. I am practicing differently as a result and I think this is the litmus test for how important and how valuable a course really is.

I extend my sincere appreciation for lining this up. I am eager to participate in any course that brings in other similar speakers in the future and I can tell you that I am different for having attended this course!

This course was packed so full of powerful and cutting-edge wellness and prevention information that it's already transforming my own health and will help me greatly to help others achieve their own optimal health. I wish I'd had even some of this critically important information during my 30-year career in emergency medicine, but "better late than never", and now I feel well armed and ready to move forward on the Prevention bandwagon: tally ho! I truly feel the speakers presented million-dollar information that any healthcare professional who truly CARES about their patients'/clients' health cannot afford to miss! I was truly astonished at the depth and breadth of knowledge and information presented and discussed.

Dr. Kathryn Collins, M.D.

I have been in the fitness industry for 26 years now as an Exercise Physiologist, Certified Personal Trainer, and health club owner. I have been studied and have been exposed to many types of nutritional and exercise philosophies, strategies, and theories during my career. Some of these have been holistic in nature, though most have been more traditional. In the past, I had no understanding of the power of nutrition in reversing many of the degenerative diseases that Americans suffer from. This all changed after taking The Wellness Forum's "Lifestyle Medicine Certification" course.

What impressed me most about this course was the high level of instruction I received. The course instructors were long-term practicing physicians who have had extensive experience with nutrition and lifestyle choices and the associated healing/health effects. Each week's course agenda covered various specific areas of health and disease management. By the end of the course, I was confident and knowledgeable in dealing with healthy, as well as, special degenerative disease population clients.

Since completing the course, my clientele has grown by a few hundred. This is primarily due to the application of information that I learned in the "Lifestyle Medicine Certification" course. I would highly recommend that anyone dealing with health care management, from whatever profession, take this course.
