Can anyone spell "SCAM"???
This looks like a workshop for physicians offering CME credit and "increased income". From the short description it looks like he is trying to revive HRT, probably with "safe alternatives", coupled with a marketing plan. I abhor this. Physicians should treat patients with evidence based medicine and should not need a "marketing plan", nor a "gimmick" to earn a living.
HRT fell out of favor after 40 years when an article appeared in the NEJM in November 2003, an article that was completely misinterpreted. The article actually just pointed out that HRT should be used for an appropriate reason and for a limited number of years----we don't need 90 year old women on prempro. But the alarmists prevailed due to a slightly increased risk of cervical and breast cancer (or should I say alarmists and their lawyers), so HRT has been utilized very sparingly. It looks like this guy is going to try to exploit a niche. He is NOT your friend.
