Is it really as good as it sounds? Is it safe? Why doesn't my doctor know about it? Why does my doctor say "no" to it? Cut through the confusion and controversy surrounding HRT!
Dr. Rollins has been studying and prescribing Bioidentical Hormones for 15 years with thousands of patients and he is the only physician in Western Colorado Board-Certified with the American Academy of Anti-Aging and Regenerative Medicine.
HRT is an updated science which has been shown to not only prolong life but improve and prolong the quality of life. Hormones stimulate a multitude of life-giving processes throughout the body which maintain health, harmony, growth and healing.
A decrease in production of hormones begins in middle age and continues to diminish in a linear fashion until old age. Hormone deficiencies affect every cell in the body and result in degenerative changes and aging. Bringing hormone levels back to a youthful level reverses many of the unfavorable effects that begin to appear as we age.
We have begun to change our thinking that it is normal to deteriorate with age, and therefore acceptable. It is now possible to stop much of the undesirable aspects of aging as well as the symptoms and diseases associated with aging.
In this seminar we'll separate fact from fiction and help you understand why HRT might be right for you!
Dr. Rollins is the first and only medical doctor in western Colorado board certified with the American Board of Anti-Aging and Regenerative Medicine. In order to bring this expertise to western Colorado, he brought together a group of progressive providers in Grand Junction to form the Integrative Medicine Center of Western Colorado, of which he is Medical Director.
Dr. Rollins has always had an interest in real preventative medicine, anti-aging and integrative medicine. He has been studying and prescribing bioidentical hormones for over a decade, most recently through his business AdvantAge Integrative Medicine. He makes the use of supplements and nutrition part of his regular practice as well, and is helping to educate people about these important concepts.
Dr. Rollins is also board certified with the American Board of Family Practice and has been certified in Advanced Cardiac Life Support and Advanced Trauma Life Support. With these certifications and years of experience in his rural practice in Collbran, CO since 1994, he is qualified in managing most all routine medical issues as well as handling serious medical emergencies, fractures, and lacerations. In 2004, Dr. Rollins was chosen "Colorado Family Physician of the Year" based on his expertise and commitment to family medicine.
The Integrative Medicine Center of Western Coloardo's website has a lot of information about hormones and many other subjects, the practitioners, and what integrative medicine is. Please learn more at www.imcwc.com [1]
