2010 Obesity Conference is a Success!

This year’s conference was a success, attracting more than 150 physicians and healthcare professionals. Conference attendees gained practical information from leading weight loss experts - Judith S. Beck, PhD, Peter Jones, MD, FACP, Robert F. Kushner, MD, and Timothy Church, MD, PhD, MPH - on numerous topics covered throughout the conference, including VLCD and LCD meal planning and nutrition, staff training, marketing, exercise and maintenance.

An evening Welcome Reception and various breakout sessions offered great opportunities to network with fellow attendees and receive one-on-one advice from the experts (pictured right).

We have completed the process of summarizing the evaluations and it is clear that the feedback is extremely positive. Based on these evaluations, we have already begun the process of planning the course for next year. Check back soon for our 2011 dates and location.
