Miscarriage - Treatment of Infertility
Interpreting and Utilizing Diagnostic Information for Gynecology and Obstetrics
Diagnosis is a key link between patient and treatment in any tradition of medicine. While a clear diagnosis leads directly to a focused effective treatment, a murky diagnosis will result in less than satisfactory results. This seminar will focus on the key diagnostic points and the resulting treatment strategies, summarized from Sharon Weizenbaum's 25 plus years of clinical experience, that make the difference in the quality of your results when working with fertility and pregnancy issues.
