August 4, 2012 staronepr Leave a comment

The IAPAM helps physicians enter this lucrative market, by offering their physician-led hCG Training in Scottsdale, Arizona on September 21, 2012.

Las Vegas, Nevada, USA – August 4, 2012 — A recent study found that, “more than 1.7 billion people worldwide may be classified as overweight and need appropriate medical or surgical treatment with the goal of sustainable weight loss.” To meet this consumer demand, the IAPAM helps physicians enter this lucrative market, by offering their physician-led hCG Training in Scottsdale, Arizona on September 21, 2012. Physicians will learn and receive everything they need to start safely and profitably offering hCG for weight loss to their patients as they go back-to-school and back-to-work.

Researchers in Canada recently published a study that found “that over a six-year period 43% of the patients of a weight-management clinic dropped out of the program before achieving sustainable weight loss.” The study also found that “substantial early weight loss,” like that associated with an hCG program or bariatric surgery, served as a successful motivator to continue a weight loss program, and that of those patients who achieved a substantial early weight loss, only 12% dropped out of the their program.

To that end, the IAPAM (http://www.iapam.com) has trained over 700 physicians on how to effectively offer hCG (human Chorionic Gonadotropin) for “substantial early weight loss” to their patients. To date, well over 26,000 patients have successfully lost weight on hCG using the IAPAM’s Exclusive hCG Diet (http://www.hcgtraining.com), based on Dr. Simeons manuscript, Pounds and Inches (http://www.iapam.com/dr-simeons-pounds-and-inches-manuscript.html).

Join the IAPAM for its next hCG Training session of 2012, on September 21, 2012, and offer hCG for Weight Loss to your patients as they prepare to go back-to-school and back-to-work after the summer.

The IAPAM’s hCG Training includes everything a physician needs to add this program to a practice, such as:

– Detailed IAPAM hCG Program Protocols
– Patient selection criteria
– Common medical hCG contraindications
– Consent forms, medical history forms
– Patient hCG Program Guidebook to offer patients (hCG friendly recipes, food journal, tips)
– Patient PowerPoint presentations for the waiting room
– Phone scripts & call logs for your staff
– Legal/Insurance considerations, and current FDA status
– hCG ordering information and special pharmaceutical hCG pricing
– Special hCG Facebook discussion forum
– VLCD/LCD diet programs
– Meal replacement diet programs
– Ketogenic based diet programs
– Utilizing B6/B12 injections in weight loss
– Using prescription appetite suppressants in weight loss
– Metabolism testing as a profit center
– Laser assisted lipolysis
– Listing of one’s hCG Clinic in the IAPAM’s NEW hCG Diet Clinic Directory (http://www.hcgtraining.com/hcg-diet-clinics)

Moreover, the IAPAM’s respected program is taught by true hCG experts who operate hCG weight loss clinics, and who have completed the hCG Protocol themselves. This allows physicians and their staff to learn from the faculty’s vast experience. Finally, the IAPAM’s hCG Training is the only Physician hCG Training program in North America approved for a special medical malpractice rate for those who have attended and have been certified by the IAPAM. This medical malpractice coverage is not offered to any other hCG training program.

IAPAM hCG Protocol Remediates Rising Healthcare Costs

April 18, 2012 staronepr Leave a comment

Over 21,000 patients have successfully lost weight using the IAPAM’s Exclusive hCG Protocol, and a new study from Cornell University reports that rising healthcare costs can be positively impacted through offering patients safe and sustained weight loss programs.

Las Vegas, Nevada (April 18, 2012) — The IAPAM offers the most comprehensive hCG Training for physicians looking to add hCG for weight loss to their practices. Over 21,000 patients have successfully lost weight using the IAPAM’s Exclusive hCG Protocol, and a new study from Cornell University reports that rising healthcare costs can be positively impacted through offering patients safe and sustained weight loss programs.

A recent study from Cornell University found that, “obesity now accounts for almost 21 % of U.S. health care costs – more than twice the previous estimates.” The study also reports that “an obese person incurs medical costs that are $2,741 higher than if they were not obese. Nationwide, that translates into $190.2 billion per year, or 20.6 % of national health expenditures. Previous estimates had pegged the cost of obesity at $85.7 billion, or 9.1 % of national health expenditures.” Moreover, a similar study in March 2012 from the Journal of Occupational and Environmental Medicine, reported that, “obesity [now] adds more to health care costs than smoking does.”

In an effort to support physicians as they offer safe and effective weight management programs to their patients, the IAPAM (http://www.iapam.com) has developed a tool to bring trained hCG physicians and patients together: the IAPAM’s hCG Diet Clinic Directory (http://www.iapam.com/aesthetic-resources/hcg-diet-clinics). The IAPAM’s hCG Clinic Listing offers the most comprehensive hCG Diet Clinic listing of physicians, all of whom have been expertly trained in hCG for weight loss, by the IAPAM.

Patients seeking physicians, who have completed the IAPAM’s hCG Training, can browse the directory to find an hCG expert physician in their area. All physicians listed on the IAPAM hCG Diet Clinic Directory page have:

1. advanced training in utilizing hCG for weight loss,
2. only offer pharmaceutical grade hCG, and
3. all their hCG patients use the IAPAM’s comprehensive hCG Protocol Patient Guidebook.

Jeff Russell, Executive Director of the IAPAM, and a member of the expert faculty of instructors at the IAPAM’s hCG Physician Weight Loss Training, comments that, “since being showcased on the Dr. Oz Show in February 2011 and March 2012, patient demand for medically supervised hCG weight loss has exploded. We are seeing a correlating increase in physician-demand for the IAPAM’s hCG training, to capture this growing market.” To date, “well over 21,000 patients have successfully lost weight on hCG using the IAPAM’s Exclusive hCG Protocol (http://www.hcgtraining.com), based on Dr. Simeons manuscript, Pounds and Inches, and the IAPAM’s hCG training is taught by a faculty who operate hCG weight loss clinics, allowing physicians and their staff to learn from the faculty’s vast experience,” shares Russell.

IAPAM’s hCG Training is Complete and Comprehensive

Physicians who have attended the IAPAM’s full day hCG training are the best trained hCG physicians in North America. In fact, the IAPAM’s hCG Training is the only medical weight loss training approved for a special medical malpractice rate for those who have attended and have been certified by the IAPAM.

For physicians interested in adding hCG for Weight Loss, please note that all of the IAPAM’s hCG Medical Weight Management seminars in 2010-2012 have sold out. To register for the next session in 2012, please visit: http://www.hcgtraining.com or contact the IAPAM at 1-800-219-5108 ext 708.

IAPAM Announces April Date for hCG Training: April 27, 2012

March 22, 2012 staronepr Leave a comment

IAPAM is helping physicians enter this lucrative market, by offering their physician-led hCG Training in Scottsdale, Arizona on April 27, 2012.

Las Vegas, Nevada, March 22, 2012 — On March 14, 2012, Dr. Oz’s comments re-ignited unprecedented positive interest in hCG for weight loss. To meet this consumer demand, the IAPAM is helping physicians enter this lucrative market, by offering their physician-led hCG Training in Scottsdale, Arizona on April 27, 2012. Physicians will learn and receive everything they need to start safely and profitably offering hCG for weight loss to their patients in 2012.

The IAPAM (http://www.iapam.com) has trained over 650 physicians on how to effectively offer hCG (human Chorionic Gonadotropin) for weight loss to their patients. To date, well over 20,000 patients have successfully lost weight on hCG using the IAPAM’s Exclusive hCG Diet (http://www.hcgtraining.com), based on Dr. Simeons manuscript, Pounds and Inches (http://www.iapam.com/dr-simeons-pounds-and-inches-manuscript.html).

Join the IAPAM for its next hCG Training session of 2012, on April 27, 2012, and prepare to offer hCG for Weight Loss to the flood of patients seeking hCG as a result of seeing Dr. Oz’s recent overview (http://www.doctoroz.com/videos/does-hcg-diet-work-pt-1) of this effective weight loss program.

During the segment, Dr. Oz had several key messages regarding the safe and effective use of pharmaceutical grade hCG in a physician-supervised weight loss program. These key messages are consistent with the principals taught in the International Association for Physicians in Aesthetic Medicine’s Physician hCG Training (http://www.hcgtraining.com):

1. Consistent with the FDA’s position, homeopathic hCG (hCG drops, etc.) DO NOT WORK. Only pharmaceutical hCG, prescribed by a physician as part of a proven hCG Protocol, is effective in fat and weight loss.
2. Unlike weight loss from a restrictive diet alone, where up to 1/3 of a patient’s weight loss is muscle loss, patients on an hCG Protocol loose fat from their stomachs, buttocks, etc. and “leave the muscle alone.”
3. Dr. Oz recommends that any patient on diet under 1200 calories, should be under the direct care of a physician.

The IAPAM’s hCG Training includes everything a physician needs to add this program to a practice, such as:

– Detailed IAPAM hCG Program Protocols
– Patient selection criteria
– Common medical hCG contraindications
– Consent forms, medical history forms
– Patient hCG Program Guidebook to offer patients (hCG friendly recipes, food journal, tips)
– Patient PowerPoint presentations for the waiting room
– Phone scripts & call logs for your staff
– Legal/Insurance considerations, and current FDA status
– hCG ordering information and special pharmaceutical hCG pricing
– Special hCG Facebook discussion forum
– VLCD/LCD diet programs
– Meal replacement diet programs
– Ketogenic based diet programs
– Utilizing B6/B12 injections in weight loss
– Using prescription appetite suppressants in weight loss
– Metabolism testing as a profit center
– Laser assisted lipolysis
– Listing of your hCG Clinic in the IAPAM’s NEW hCG Diet Clinic Directory (http://www.iapam.com/aesthetic-resources/hcg-diet-clinics)

Moreover, the IAPAM’s respected program is taught by true hCG experts who operate hCG weight loss clinics, and who have completed the hCG Protocol themselves. This allows physicians and their staff to learn from the IAPAM faculty’s vast experience. Finally, the IAPAM’s hCG Training is the only Physician hCG Training program in North America approved for a special medical malpractice rate for those who have attended and have been certified by the IAPAM. This medical malpractice coverage is not offered to any other hCG training program.

IAPAM Predicts Strong Growth in hCG for Weight Loss

March 21, 2012 staronepr Leave a comment

Las Vegas, Nevada, March 21, 2012 — The IAPAM predicts strong growth in hCG for weight loss in 2012. Physicians who incorporate hCG for weight loss into their practices will reap significant financial rewards in 2012. The IAPAM’s goal is to provide industry-leading hCG training for physicians, by offering the most comprehensive, all-inclusive, physician-led hCG Medical Weight Management Training in North America.

Jeff Russell, Executive Director of the International Association for Physicians in Aesthetic Medicine (http://www.iapam.com), offer his analysis on the growth of hCG for weight loss. “Demand for hCG for weight loss has exploded through the showcasing of hCG in the media, as evidenced in the Dr. Oz Show program of March 14, 2012. Physicians expertly trained in the clinical and business aspects of adding hCG weight loss programs to their practices, are assured of satisfied patients, and the successful growth of their healthcare businesses.”

To support physicians in finding expert hCG training, the IAPAM offers its Physician hCG training program (http://www.hcgtraining.com) for doctors and other healthcare professionals. “Our Medical Weight Management Program with hCG has garnered genuine praise from the physicians who have attended,” shares Russell. He also sees the benefits in offering complementary medical weight management and aesthetic medicine treatments to patients. “The next breakthrough will be in laser assisted lipolysis. Laser liposuction paired with hCG for medical weight management will be a key growth area for physicians in 2012.”

The IAPAM has trained over 650 physicians and their staff on how to safely offer hCG to their patients, and over 20,000 patients have successfully lost weight on hCG, using the IAPAM’s exclusive hCG Protocol (based on Dr. Simeons manuscript, Pounds and Inches).

The upcoming 2012 dates for the IAPAM’s Exclusive Physician Weight Management hCG Training, in Scottsdale, Arizona are:

April 27, 2012 and June 1, 2012

Physicians who have attended the IAPAM’s hCG training testify to the comprehensiveness of the program and rave that, “the support you get from the IAPAM afterwards definitely makes their course different than the others.” The benefits of attending the IAPAM’s hCG Training, and membership in the IAPAM, endure beyond the training. “I learned how to add a successful hCG program to my practice …..and I actually [received all] the tools to get started. Wonderful, motivating, informative, specific, intellectual. The best seminar I have attended,” says a physician from Maryland after completing the IAPAM’s hCG Training.

All of the IAPAM’s hCG Training seminars have sold out in 2010, 2011, and 2012, so for additional information or to register for an upcoming session, please contact the IAPAM at 1-800-219-5108 ext. 708, or visit http://www.iapam.com or http://www.hcgtraining.com

IAPAM’s Physician hCG Training is Consistent with Dr. Oz’s Recommendations

March 17, 2012 staronepr Leave a comment

Las Vegas, Nevada – March 17, 2012 — The IAPAM has trained over 650 physicians on how to safely offer hCG for weight loss, and well over 20,000 patients have successfully lost weight using the IAPAM’s Exclusive hCG Protocol. The core principles of the IAPAM’s hCG Training are consistent with those outlined by Dr. Oz in his March 14, 2012 segment on hCG for weight loss: it is imperative for patients to undertake an hCG program under the care of a trained physician, and never use hCG (homeopathic hCG) that is sold without a prescription.

In his March 14, 2012 segment on hCG for weight loss (http://www.doctoroz.com/videos/does-hcg-diet-work-pt-1), Dr. Oz announced that he had “new data” on the successful use of hCG (human Chorionic Gonadotropin) for weight loss. In a pilot study conducted by a leading medical weight management physician, Dr. Oz reported that patients following a strict, medically supervised hCG Protocol, were not hungry and lost weight, and ultimately lost more “fat vs. muscle,” than patients on only a very low calorie diet.

1. Consistent with the FDA’s position, homeopathic hCG (hCG drops, etc.) DO NOT WORK. Only pharmaceutical hCG, prescribed by a physician as part of a proven hCG Protocol, is effective in fat and weight loss.
2. Unlike weight loss from a restrictive diet alone, where up to 1/3 of a patient’s weight loss is muscle loss, patients on an hCG Protocol lose fat from their stomachs, buttocks, etc. and “leave the muscle alone.”
3. Dr. Oz recommends that any patient on diet under 1200 calories, should be under the direct care of a physician.

The IAPAM’s hCG Protocol is based upon the successful protocol originally developed in 1954 by Dr. Simeons, and detailed in his report, Pounds and Inches, and is built around a low calorie diet coupled with the administration of the pharmaceutical grade of the naturally occurring hormone, hCG. The IAPAM’s hCG Protocol has been administered to over 20,000 patients around the world with consistent weight loss results.

To date, all of the IAPAM’s 2010, 2011 and 2012 Physician hCG Medical Weight Management seminars have sold out, so to register for the next hCG Training session in Scottsdale, Arizona, please go to http://www.hcgtraining.com, or contact the IAPAM at info@theiapam.com or 1-800-219-5108 ext 708.
