  • Most Old School doctors are not up to date and don't have the firm grasps that MOST, of us do now. With the current strain of time constraints, even though we are suppose to do consults on weight, I can not stress enough you will not get the best time spent with us until insurance changes billing so that we can spend more…

The first set is 30mins which is the MOST intense where you will be completely on your feet the whole time. You are not allowed either to drink water during this…

  • you should be very careful, as medical student, ,my best advice is to educate yourself the most you can about the disease.
