Today's subject matter is not only a critically important topic but timely for all of us as Patients and particularly concerning FOR DOCTORS as they wrestle with the complexity of COVID-19 or Coronavirus.   In our discussion today with Dr. Ellie Campbell we talk about what Doctors can and should be doing in their own offices, how they can prepare for an influx of calls, concerns and potential illnesses that are coming our way. We talk about how and why we need more Doctors working with their peers to contribute to the meaningful medical education and disseminating that correct information to their local communities so they can help Patients become more informed and aware of proper habits and local resources. In this special edition of our podcast we sit down with Dr. Ellie Campbell, a Double Board-Certified Physician with clinical interests in family medicine, holistic care, a specialist in Functional Medicine and Oral Systemic Connection.   Originally a native of metro Chicago-land, she graduated from the University of Illinois in 1983, and obtained a Master of Science degree in 1984. She obtained her DO degree from the Kirksville College of Osteopathic Medicine in 1989, emphasizing care for the body, mind and spirit. Retreating to a southern climate, she then moved to Georgia for her Family Medicine training. In 1992, she received the outstanding resident of the year award from the Family Medicine department at the Medical College of Georgia in Augusta. For the first thirteen years of her career, Dr. Campbell served the uninsured of our community practicing at a community health center. In 2005 she started her own private practice. In her free time, Dr. Campbell and her husband vacation with their three wonderful daughters and enjoy theater, yard work and gardening together.   Dr. Campbell is also the trusted physician to many physicians, surgeons, dentists, chiropractors, veterinarians, and their families. The staff at CFM refers to Dr. Campbell as the “Master of the Human Jigsaw Puzzle” and feel privileged to have her as their own family physician.   To connect with Dr. Campbell, visit: http://campbellfamilymedicine.com/about-us/dr-ellie-campbell/   Resources Mentioned   http://campbellfamilymedicine.com/ https://www.aaemonline.org/ https://icimed.com/ https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/cancer/expert-answers/alternative-cancer-treatment/faq-20057968 https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/cancer/expert-answers/alternative-cancer-treatment/faq-20057968 https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5927785/ https://www.cancer.gov/about-cancer/treatment/cam/patient/vitamin-c-pdq https://www.acam.org/   ADDITIONAL EDUCATION RESOURCES FOR DOCTORS SOURCED BY CONCIERGE MEDICINE TODAY (CMT)   Vitamin C Infusion for the Treatment of Severe 2019-nCoV Infected Pneumonia, visit: https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT04264533   Vitamin C Intravenous Treatment In the Setting of Atrial Fibrillation Ablation: Results From the Randomized, Double-Blinded, Placebo-Controlled CITRIS-AF Pilot Study, visit: https://www.ahajournals.org/doi/10.1161/JAHA.119.014213   Broad Spectrum Antiviral Agent Niclosamide and Its Therapeutic Potential, visit: https://pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/acsinfecdis.0c00052   [Analysis on the epidemic factors for the Corona Virus Disease], visit: CDC | Wash Your Hands Often to Stay Healthy Handwashing is one of the best ways to protect yourself and your family from getting sick.   Learn when and how you should wash your hands to stay healthy.

Today on the DocPreneur Leadership Podcast at Concierge Medicine Today we sit down with Dr. Joshua Hare Chief Science Officer at Longeveron, a life sciences company developing biological solutions for aging and aging-associated diseases through the testing of allogeneic human Mesenchymal Stem Cells (MSCs) that are derived from the bone marrow of young, healthy donors.   Dr. Hare is also the Founding Director of the University of Miami Interdisciplinary Stem Cell Institute (ISCI). Through his work with ISCI, Hare has made significant advances in the field of stem cell regenerative medicine, including the creation of relevant intellectual property.   Dr. Joshua Hare co-founded Longeveron in 2014 utilizing intellectual property and technology exclusively licensed from the University of Miami, where he is also the Founding Director of the university’s Interdisciplinary Stem Cell Institute (ISCI). Through his work with ISCI, Hare has made significant advances in the field of stem cell regenerative medicine, including the creation of relevant intellectual property.   A graduate of the University of Pennsylvania (1984) and the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine (1988), Hare completed fellowships at Johns Hopkins and Brigham and Women’s Hospital in Boston, Ma. He served as a research fellow at Harvard University and is Board Certified in cardiovascular medicine. During his career, Hare has championed the field of allogeneic cell therapy, and he has conducted five clinical trials using allogenic cell therapy. Hare’s publications in the area of cell-based therapy are widely cited, and he holds six Investigational New Drug (IND) authorizations from the FDA for cell therapy drugs and treatments in patients with heart disease. Hare co-founded Longeveron as a means to bring his academic findings to patients with unmet medical needs.   Hare’s extensive list of accolades and professional experience includes: Director, Interdisciplinary Stem Cell Institute (ISCI) Louis Lemberg Professor of Medicine (cardiology), Leonard M. Miller School of Medicine, University of Miami Professor of Biomedical Engineering Professor of Molecular and Cellular Pharmacology Professor of Cell Biology and Anatomy Nominated in 2011 to the Association of American Physicians Stem cell therapy is emerging as a promising new treatment option for chronic diseases and injuries affecting various organ systems.   One of the most exciting ideas emerging from the field of regenerative medicine is the theory that stem cells can treat aging-related disability and frailty, reducing inflammation and improving functional capacity and quality of life for human beings. Stem cells have the potential to increase longevity and could ameliorate diseases and disorders associated with aging. Currently there are no FDA-approved allogeneic mesenchymal stem cell treatments in the United States. Longeveron's LMSCs are currently undergoing rigorous testing for safety and efficacy in Phase I and II clinical trials. They hope to be the first to offer stem cells as a safe, effective, FDA-approved treatment for some of the world’s most difficult chronic and life-threatening conditions such as Aging Frailty, Alzheimer’s disease and the Metabolic Syndrome.   © Concierge Medicine Today, LLC.

Today we discuss the importance of clinical trials and the resources both Patients and Physicians should turn to and learn more about. We catch up with Jennifer Bonfrisco, Founder and CEO of Corlexia Clinical Services.   Jennifer and her team share the common belief that Clinical Research Studies should be more accessible to more patients. "The majority of clinical trials take place in large academic hospital settings, in turn limiting the accessibility to patients outside of the immediate area," said Jennifer. "The average person can’t afford to miss work to spend several days a week getting to these hospitals.   This was the first spark that led to the start of Corlexia Clinical Services. I have spent many years in my pharma world finding ways to make trials more patient-friendly, and it has been some of the most rewarding work I have done. So I decided to create a company solely dedicated to bringing important trials to communities."   About Corlexia   Corlexia is a mix of former pharmaceutical directors and scientists with backgrounds from pre-clinical toxicology to Phase IV clinical trials. Some have worked for large pharmaceutical companies, and some preferred smaller start-ups. We know how to run studies and develop drugs, and we decided to focus our efforts on finding ways to expedite enrollment. We have experienced firsthand how recruitment rates can be the end of a promising compound. We are removing the hurdles so more treatments can be available to more patients and ultimately reach the market quicker.   LEARN MORE, visit: https://corlexia.com/ https://corlexia.com/contact/   Resources Mentioned   ClinicalTrials.gov is a resource provided by the U.S. National Library of Medicine.   IMPORTANT: Listing a study does not mean it has been evaluated by the U.S. Federal Government.

Today we wrestle with a complex, overwhelming subject and very personal material. Mental Health. More specifically, how can Physicians, Concierge Medicine Doctors and families access the right treatment and the best resources in a complex and emotionally charged field of healthcare?   Our guest and good friend today is Arden O'Connor, CEO of the O'Connor Professional Group (www.oconnorpg.com). Arden founded the O’Connor Professional Group to address the needs of families and individuals struggling with an array of behavioral health issues, including addiction, mental health disorders, eating disorders, learning, and other developmental challenges. With several relatives in recovery, Arden is passionate about helping families and individuals navigate the highly fragmented treatment system in a way that creates positive outcomes and allows families to heal.   Arden is a graduate of Harvard College and Harvard Business School. She remains heavily involved in community activities, as a board member of Winsor School Corporation, Collaboration for Family Flourishing, Massachusetts Association of Mental Health, and Attorneys for Family Held Enterprises. Previously, she served as a board member for the Justice Resource Institute (former chair), Harvard Club of Boston, Victory Programs, C4 Recovery Solutions and Harvard Business School Alumni Association of Boston.   She maintains professional affiliations with the following organizations: Boston Estate Planning Council and Family Firm Institute. "O’Connor Professional Group is more than a business endeavor for me; it is a mission that I embarked on after my experience accessing resources for a family member in the treatment industry. My youngest brother struggled with addiction for many years, and finding the right treatment program or set of services for him was difficult, confusing, and often overwhelming. It created chaos within our family system and I knew there had to be a better way to manage the process.   I founded the O’Connor Professional Group to help families like mine find high-quality resources and develop strong community-based supports, given that transitions often present challenges for individuals with behavioral health issues. With a strong team of experts, vast network of colleagues and continuum of services, we are able to tailor our approach to meet the holistic needs of clients and their support systems."   Resources Mentioned Office Tel. 617-910-3940 Email: aoconnor@oconnorpg.com Web: www.oconnorpg.com   © Concierge Medicine Today, LLC.

These Physicians help their Patients get to the root causes of underlying health issues, helping you to feel and look your best at every age.   In fact, based on an internal study of the last 200 Cenegenics® patients completing their first annual re-evaluation, the average body fat percentage declined 30% from the initial evaluation when joining the Cenegenics® program*[1].   Each Cenegenics® physician has completed the Clinical Strategies for Healthy Aging in Age Management Medicine program, sponsored by the Foundation of Healthy Aging, the educational division of Cenegenics® Education and Research Foundation (CERF) - providing our physicians with a specialized skillset to practice this medical specialty. Patients who commit to the program experience dramatic changes in their health and vitality; decreasing body fat and increasing muscle tone, improving insulin and cholesterol levels, increasing physical and sexual vitality, managing stress and improving mental sharpness and sleep quality.   Cenegenics® doesn't subscribe to traditional medicine’s fix-it-when-it’s broken and diagnose-and-treat philosophies.

Today we sit down with Nick Desai, CEO and co-founder of Heal.   Effective January 1, 2020, Sutter Health | Aetna is teaming up with Heal, the leader in doctor house calls, to bring “doctors to your door” seven days a week.   “Sutter Health | Aetna and Heal see eye to eye and are working together to transform the healthcare system and make care more convenient and affordable.”   SAN FRANCISCO – Dec. 17, 2019 – House calls from a doctor are making a comeback, thanks in part to a tech-savvy culture and consumer demands for better healthcare access and convenience. In response, Sutter Health | Aetna is teaming up with Heal, to bring “doctors to your door” seven days a week. This service includes scheduling doctors’ visits to a member’s home or office, from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m., through the Heal app, website, or a phone call.   “We are taking steps to modernize the delivery of healthcare by making it easier to access and more affordable,” said Steve Wigginton, Sutter Health | Aetna CEO. “Heal’s ‘doctors to your door’ service will increase convenience for members by enabling them to receive primary, preventive, pediatric, and urgent care services from the convenience of their home or office. We want to deliver a differentiated member experience that leads to lower healthcare costs and better outcomes.”   With the innovative joint venture between Sutter Health and Aetna, Heal services are integrated with the member’s care. Heal physicians can write prescriptions, order labs and suggest in-network referrals for specialists and other healthcare services, like behavioral health or disease management. Collaboration between Heal doctors and the Sutter Health | Aetna provider network helps coordinate care and improve provider communications, safety and quality.   Sutter Health | Aetna members can schedule appointments every day, including weekends and holidays. Through Heal, board-certified doctors can arrive in as little as two hours in most locations. Employers offering their employees a Sutter Health | Aetna plan can also schedule on-site “Heal Days” to help keep their employees healthy and happy. P.S. We think the "How it Works" section of Heal's website will be of particular interest to you and your audience of doctors and patients!   © Concierge Medicine Today, LLC.
