tfsarticle@aol.com (AAPPM) — Fri, 27 May 2011 19:31:00 -0500

A Window of Opportunity is available to increase revenue and grow your practice.

One of the biggest trends in medicine today is 'Fall Prevention' and Balance. Statistics every year demonstrate an ever growing emergence of seniors suffering from life altering falls. Even more, is the fact that a growing number of studies indicate that many are falling as the result of foot and ankle related pathology that we can and should address as podiatric physicians. Add to this the immediate needs that seniors have in the form of PAD assessments, physical therapy, footwear and diabetic related supplies.

In the webinar, Dr. Jonathan More shows how to put these tools in place and form your own Geriatric (Fall Prevention) Center of Excellence.
