A brand new Bio-identical Hormone Replacement Therapy Symposium is being held September 11-13, 2020. This event is a virtual educational experience that offers a new easy to navigate and interactive virtual format; new clinical program agenda; new faculty; and new research, clinical updates, and resources.
Description:
This symposium is expected to be one of our most widely attended events, join us and listen to experts such as Myles Spar, MD, MPH and Sara Gottfried MD analyze the medical evidence surrounding hormone therapies, while learning from actively practicing instructors & specialty lecturers. At the conference, sessions will allow participants to gain the information needed to safely and effectively merge hormone therapies into practice. While the traditional medical view of aging focuses on its inevitable complications and steady decline in quality of life, this therapy functions as a means of relieving—and even preventing—many symptoms. Lectures will specifically focus on allowing participants to integrate and implement hormone protocols into practice upon return to the office Monday morning.
