PRESS RELEASE - Guest Lecturer, Ellie Campbell, DO back to top

Ellie Campbell DO recently attended an intensive 3 day continuing medical education course offered by ZRT Labs in Portland Oregon. The course was entitled “Bio-identical Hormone Restoration Therapy in Male and Female Patients.”  Content was directed at helping medical practitioners identify and treat symptoms of hormone imbalances including PMS, Polycystic Ovary Syndrome, menopause and peri-menopause, andropause (AKA “male menopause”), thyroid disorders not responding to conventional therapy, and more. At the conference, substantial clinical evidence was reviewed to support the validity, safety and effectiveness of salivary hormone testing, and natural and bio-identical treatment options.  Following the “hormone scare” of the recently published Women’s Health Initiative, many patients will be glad to know that there are safer and more effective hormone replacement strategies.

 

In addition, Dr Campbell was a featured guest lecturer. She presented her 90 minute lecture entitled “Vitamin D-Not just for Osteoporosis Anymore!” to an audience of physicians, mid-level providers, and pharmacists.  Following her lecture, she was interviewed on the topic of Vitamin D testing and treatment strategies for KBOO Radio in Portland.

 

More information about hormone testing and medical education seminars is available at www.zrtlab.com

For Immediate Release!  Johns Creek. You don’t need to be afraid of going to the dentist anymore back to top

 

For many Americans going to the dentist is a frightful event, even though dentistry has changed so much in the past years.  A visit to the dentist can now be relaxing and fun.  Unfortunately, this is not enough for the approximately 145 million people who avoid the dentist due to fear.

 

Dr. Ushma Patel (and her caring team), who practices in Johns Creek, has completed special training that allows her to treat these fearful people.  "That’s right, using a small pill, people can now have their dental care accomplished while they are totally relaxed and absolutely comfortable." 

 

Dr. Ushma Patel adds,  "I have always been very sensitive to my patients with high fear and apprehension, and now I can offer them a safe and even more comfortable experience.  I feel so many good people are avoiding needed care due to fear.  I am looking forward to helping these people visit the dentist with this safe and wonderful technique of anxiety-free dentistry."

 

Dr. Ushma Patel is a member of the fastest growing organization of its kind in dentistry, the Dental Organization for Conscious Sedation - D.O.C.S.  The purpose of D.O.C.S is to provide the education necessary for dentists to provide needed care to the large population of people who are avoiding the dentist and to improve their lives with better dental health. 

 

"Dentistry is very high tech today with all sorts of gadgets that get the job done better and quicker, but now with anxiety-free dentistry I can bridge the gap between technology and comfort,” said Dr. Ushma Patel.

 

She added, "You should see the look on the faces of my patients when they complete their care and they have a healthy mouth – there aren’t words to describe it!  That look is why I love dentistry.  I helped to change someone's life.” 

 

Dr. Ushma Patel and her team are proud of their commitment to our community.  They can be reached at 770-623-8750 with any questions regarding anxiety-free dentistry. You can also find more information at www.hitechsmiles.com.    Posted 1-26-07
