| Applying Laboratory Evaluations to Improve Clinical Outcome |
Join us for a summer ALE Seminar!
February's Applying Laboratory Evaluations (ALE) seminar was a great success! Many clinicians joined us February 20/21 at Metametrix and felt excited, encouraged, and motivated to implement functional laboratory testing into their practices.
Join Metametrix for a summer ALE on either June 12/13 or August 28/29. This seminar focuses on an introduction to organic acids, amino acids, IgG foods, and stool testing. Attendees receive a copy of Laboratory Evaluations for Integrative and Functional Medicine, the Metametrix Handbook, and a complimentary TRIAD and GI Effects Profile.
"Excellent! More traditional practitioners should learn about this fantastic opportunity to heal patients. I look forward to educating my patients on your lab/institute."
-Sandra B. Lane, DO, February seminar attendee
