I had the local pharmacist who is doing this ask me to go to a 'conference' which was really a 'rally' to get more MLMs going! Of course the naturopaths are also making big money on these tests. I politely said no, but I'm finding myself irritated by this. And hence, when I did my recent program I found myself calling these tests 'snake oil' and probably offended the pharmacist! Do you think it is incumbant on us to do something about it? --- "Joanne Bulley, MD" <islesannie@yahoo.com> wrote: > I have had several tlelmarketers calling to > entice me to try this new > medical breakthrough of going on Growth > Hormone. > > After hanging up on them the second time - I > thought I should get their > name and report them! > > Joanne > > At Sat, 8 May 2004, Anna Meenan, MD wrote: > > > >My sister asked me to evaluate a website the > other day---some doc who > >touted "bioidentical hormone therapy", wanted > to charge her a couple > >thousand bucks to "analyze" her serum and > design a regimen for her.

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
