Clinical Applications for Age Management Medicine:
Patient Assessment, Nutrition, Exercise & Lifestyle Modification
Special Pre-Conference:
Hormone Optimization in Andropause & Aesthetic Medicine
May 15-18, 2008
Boca Raton Resort & Club
Boca Raton, Florida
Take your practice to the next level. Join us at the world-renowned, luxurious Boca Raton Resort & Club for a dynamic four-day conference—filled with clinically focused sessions in age management medicine to help you deliver superior medical care using a proactive, integrated approach.
This unique opportunity promises to broaden your knowledge via intellectually stimulating sessions—including interactive panel discussions, examinations of exercise and nutrition case studies, advanced techniques, emerging modalities, practical assessments and much more.
The Age Management Medicine Group invites you to the leading edge in medicine.
Delve deeper into hormone optimization for andropause—reviewing its origins, symptoms and basis via lectures, case presentations and panel discussions.
Learn patient assessment—from extensive medical history, laboratory analysis and interpretation to balanced individualized evaluation and treatment comprised of hormones (when clinically indicated), nutritional and exercise biomarkers.
Go beyond hormone optimization—with a closer look at the clinical relevance of nutrition and exercise as vital treatment components. Studies continue to demonstrate the critical part nutrition and exercise play in diminishing disease risk factors and even reducing mortality rates. The science of age management medicine demands your expertise in guiding patients into lifestyle modifications for optimal health.
Discover how to evaluate patients—plus identify and address nutrition deficiency, establish and prescribe an exercise program and monitor the physical conditions of your patients on an ongoing basis.
Find out how to order a test or referral—and balance medical treatments with exercise; discover critical statistics for a patient’s exercise needs.
Examine the role aesthetic medicine plays with your 21st century patients—and learn how to incorporate those clinical strategies into your practice.

Dear Fellow Clinicians,
Welcome to our third year of CME-accredited conferences centered on age management medicine . . . a medical specialty based on a proactive, preventive approach for optimal health.
Every year the number of physicians and healthcare professionals who recognize the medical necessity and financial rewards of this dynamic specialty continues to increase. Our first conference had 145 attendees—and by 2007, nearly 500 medical professionals came from across the world to take part in our highly focused clinical sessions.
Committed to excellence, our conference team has set a high standard for having top-quality presenters deliver clinically practical protocols, based on medical and scientific information. We also encourage attendees to take an interactive part in our expert panels, asking thought-provoking questions to enhance the learning experience.
This year, our 2008 schedule offers two events that complement one another. Each focuses on primary areas we believe demand a physician’s attention to guarantee superior medical care. The first conference—in Boca Raton, Florida—offers a deeper exploration into hormone optimization for andropause, patient assessment, exercise/strength conditioning, nutrition and office-based aesthetics. Understanding the importance and place of these components is essential to develop a well-balanced, individualized treatment plan for overall patient success and health.
Held at the Boca Raton Resort and Club—one of the most intriguing and stunning resorts in the world—our May conference gives you an opportunity to network with colleagues while enjoying a world-class spa, golf, dining and mind-body amenities.
Please join us for another insightful conference on age management medicine.
Sincerely,
Joseph McWherter, MD Rick Merner Greg Fillmore
