Center for Laser and Aesthetic Medicine now offering Hormone Replacement Therapy

Hormone Replacement Therapy now available to patients in Tyler, Texas

Center for Laser and Aesthetic Medicine in Tyler, Texas, will now offer hormone replacement therapy (HRT) with a variety of innovative treatment administration methods to address a range of health concerns for both men and women.

Center for Aesthetic and Laser Medicine

Patients can receive HRT in a variety of application methods, including pills, creams, troches, gels, injections, and pellets. Patients with a variety of symptoms including hair loss, thyroid disorders, memory, bone loss, menopause, and infertility can be treated.

HRT is most often thought of in relation to postmenopausal women, but it can actually be used to treat both men and women.

Hormone replacement therapy for men is typically recommended when low testosterone leads to diminished libido or fatigue. Men may also experience depression, lack of motivation, joint pain, and hair loss as a result of low testosterone.

Hormone replacement therapy for women may be recommended for a variety of reasons. HRT is often used to manage symptoms of perimenopause, menopause, and polycystic ovarian syndrome. Additionally, women may receive HRT for mood swings, fatigue, difficulty losing weight in their midsection, mood changes, sleep difficulties, and diminished libido.

Center for Laser and Aesthetic Medicine provides a range of HRT services, including:

Bioidentical Hormones Therapy
Bioidentical hormones are exact replicas (identical) to the hormones your own body produces. These hormones are created in a lab, like synthetic hormones, but bioidentical hormones are specifically created for your body to exactly match the natural hormones at a molecular level.

Weight Loss Program
Maintaining a healthy weight can be difficult if hormone production is off. We offer hormone therapy that helps the body produce or replace hormones that aid in thyroid and metabolic function. By triggering the production of weight loss hormones, patients who are eating healthy and exercising regularly are better able to lose weight and maintain their healthy weight.

Testosterone Therapy
Low testosterone levels have numerous negative effects, including diminished sex drive, erectile dysfunction, fatigue, loss of muscle mass, hair loss, as well as cognitive and emotional changes. Testosterone replacement therapy can help improve overall health and vitality, renew sex drive, and otherwise reverse the negative effects of low testosterone.

Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome treatment
Polycystic ovarian syndrome is a disordered hormone condition that occurs during a woman’s reproductive years. In the past, medical professionals used birth control to address ovarian cysts without fully understanding or treating the hormonal imbalance in other bodily systems that could cause numerous health concerns like weight gain, menstrual cycle irregularity, infertility, acne, mental health struggles, and more.

Women’s health specialist Wendy Freden, PA who has a specialization in hormone replacement therapy and aesthetic medicine will provide the service. At the age of 44, Wendy was diagnosed with invasive ductal breast cancer which provided her with a unique and personal understanding of how estrogen deficiency affects women mentally, physically, and aesthetically. Her goal is to educate women on the protective benefits of hormone therapy while maintaining preventative measures for protection against breast cancer. You will often hear her say, “When patients feel better inside, they want to look better on the outside.” She strives to help her patients enhance their natural beauty through the art of aesthetic medicine. Her patients love her transparency about her personal life and often call her, “friend”.

Wendy will be joined by Certified Nurse Practitioner Carly Graff who is certified in Advanced Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy and has years of experience treating patients with chronic diseases and hormone imbalances such as polycystic ovarian syndrome.

To schedule an appointment call 903-579-7261.

In Ms. Decker’s words:

“Aspire allows you to get deep with your work and achieve your goals…Being productive is finally fun and functional!”

The free event, scheduled for Thursday April 29th, 2021, will start at 11am and will run until 2pm (EST). Participants must pre-register, with additional details on the agenda emailed to registered participants.

NVIDIA Sets AI Inference Records, Introduces A30 and A10 GPUs for Enterprise Servers

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]NVIDIA AI Platform SmasNVIDIA AI Platform Smashes Every MLPerf Category, from Data Center to Edgehes Every MLPerf Category, from Data Center to Edge

NVIDIA today announced that its AI inference platform, newly expanded with NVIDIA® A30 and A10 GPUs for mainstream servers, has achieved record-setting performance across every category on the latest release of MLPerf.

MLPerf is the industry’s established benchmark for measuring AI performance across a range of workloads spanning computer vision, medical imaging, recommender systems, speech recognition and natural language processing.

Debuting on MLPerf, NVIDIA A30 and A10 GPUs combine high performance with low power consumption to provide enterprises with mainstream options for a broad range of AI inference, training, graphics and traditional enterprise compute workloads. Cisco, Dell Technologies, Hewlett Packard Enterprise, Inspur and Lenovo are expected to integrate the GPUs into their highest volume servers starting this summer.

NVIDIA achieved these results taking advantage of the full breadth of the NVIDIA AI platform ― encompassing a wide range of GPUs and AI software, including TensorRT™ and NVIDIA Triton™ Inference Server ― which is deployed by leading enterprises, such as Microsoft, Pinterest, Postmates, T-Mobile, USPS and WeChat.

“As AI continues to transform every industry, MLPerf is becoming an even more important tool for companies to make informed decisions on their IT infrastructure investments,” said Ian Buck, general manager and vice president of Accelerated Computing at NVIDIA. “Now, with every major OEM submitting MLPerf results, NVIDIA and our partners are focusing not only on delivering world-leading performance for AI, but on democratizing AI with a coming wave of enterprise servers powered by our new A30 and A10 GPUs.”

MLPerf Results
NVIDIA is the only company to submit results for every test in the data center and edge categories, delivering top performance results across all MLPerf workloads.

Several submissions also use Triton Inference Server, which simplifies the complexity of deploying AI in applications by supporting models from all major frameworks, running on GPUs, as well as CPUs, and optimizing for different query types including batch, real-time and streaming. Triton submissions achieved performance close to that of the most optimized GPU implementations, as well as CPU implementations, with comparable configurations.

NVIDIA also broke new ground with its submissions using the NVIDIA Ampere architecture’s Multi-Instance GPU capability by simultaneously running all seven MLPerf Offline tests on a single GPU using seven MIG instances. The configuration showed nearly identical performance compared with a single MIG instance running alone.

These submissions demonstrate MIG’s performance and versatility, which enable infrastructure managers to provision right-sized amounts of GPU compute for specific applications to get maximum output from every data center GPU.

In addition to NVIDIA’s own submissions, NVIDIA partners Alibaba Cloud, Dell Technologies, Fujitsu, GIGABYTE, HPE, Inspur, Lenovo and Supermicro submitted a total of over 360 results using NVIDIA GPUs.

NVIDIA’s Expanding AI Platform
The NVIDIA A30 and A10 GPUs are the latest additions to the NVIDIA AI platform, which includes NVIDIA Ampere architecture GPUs, NVIDIA Jetson AGX Xavier™ and Jetson Xavier NX, and a full stack of NVIDIA software optimized for accelerating AI.

The A30 delivers versatile performance for industry-standard servers, supporting a broad range of AI inference and mainstream enterprise compute workloads, such as recommender systems, conversational AI and computer vision.

The NVIDIA A10 GPU accelerates deep learning inference, interactive rendering, computer-aided design and cloud gaming, enabling enterprises to support mixed AI and graphics workloads on a common infrastructure. Using NVIDIA virtual GPU software, management can be streamlined to improve the utilization and provisioning of virtual desktops used by designers, engineers, artists and scientists.

The NVIDIA Jetson platform, based on the NVIDIA Xavier™ system-on-module, provides server-class AI performance at the edge, enabling a wide variety of applications in robotics, healthcare, retail and smart cities. Built on NVIDIA’s unified architecture and the CUDA-X™ software stack, Jetson is the only platform capable of running all the edge workloads in compact designs while consuming less than 30W of power.

NuLife Helps Brick and Mortar Treatment Organizations Transition to Tech-Assisted Behavioral Health

The company creates an opportunity for addiction treatment centers to increase care access, improve outcomes, deliver mobile-based counseling, therapy, coaching, and recovery support for patients, their family, and alumni.

NuLife Helps Brick and Mortar Treatment Organizations Transition to Tech-Assisted Behavioral Health in Hopes to Connect 1 Million Additional Individuals in Need of Effective Treatments for Addiction Amidst COVID-19 Pandemic and Beyond. For life!

The company creates an opportunity for addiction treatment centers to increase care access, improve outcomes, deliver mobile-based counseling, therapy, coaching, and recovery support for patients, their family, and alumni. 

  • The opioid crisis remains a serious public health threat across the U.S.;
  • By leveraging technology, NuLife Virtual is helping to ensure that effective treatment will be available to many more individuals struggling with addiction;
  • With a virtual experience, patients can remain connected to their treatment center, a therapist, and recovery communities while adhering to social distancing guidelines to prevent the spread of COVID-19.

Before the COVID-19 pandemic, NuLife was an industry leader for seven years in substance use disorder (SUD) treatment. At the end of 2019, it closed its brick-and-mortar operations. It transitioned to a fully digital B2B2C digital platform that partners with existing addiction treatment centers to extend its brand into virtual care services and expand access for millions of others who are battling addiction during this unprecedented crisis. 

NuLife, while still operating brick-and-mortar facilities, successfully used telemedicine to expand access to outpatient treatment for sober livings in Southern California and keep clients engaged outside of in-office visits.  

On January 15, 2020, the company decided to transition 100% of its clinical services onto its telemedicine platform. “After realizing the delivery of care online combined with an APP connecting people post-treatment not only worked, but people loved it, I decided to focus 100% on showing other treatment organizations how our model can help increase access to care and improve outcomes,” said JD Meints, Chief Executive Officer.

Addiction is often an isolating experience, and social connections are essential for sustainable recovery. But maintaining recovery communities is challenging with social distancing, as is the delivery of basic but powerful recovery capital needed to stay healthy in the best of times.

By developing a digital model that leverages multiple platforms—including secure, HIPAA-compliant voice, video, and SMS—NuLife Virtual is helping to ensure that effective treatment continues to be available to everyone who needs it. From California to Maine, patients can and will be using their mobile phones and the NuLife Virtual platform to meet and support one another through the challenges of addiction and, now, COVID-19.

“By leveraging technology, we can take an addiction treatment center virtual and ensure that patients remain connected to professionals, peers in recovery, even while physically separated,” says JD Meints, founder NuLife Virtual.

Innovative New Scheduling Voice Assistant, VoCall, Named Allscripts® App Of The Month For April 2021

VoCall is a scheduling Voice Assistant for medical practices that uses natural language voice processing technology so patients can easily manage their appointments over the phone.

Magic Medical Solutions, parent company of VoCall, is pleased to announce that its scheduling voice assistant software, VoCall, has been selected as the Allscripts App of the Month for April 2021. “As medical practitioners ourselves, we set out to build a one-of-a-kind solution that solves one of the more difficult operational problems that medical practices face. VoCall integrates with Allscripts® Practice Management to match a patient’s appointment preference with the physician’s availability,” explained Paul Cox, Founder and CEO of Magic Medical Solutions.

VoCall is an innovative scheduling voice assistant designed specifically for healthcare practices.

VoCall is an innovative scheduling voice assistant designed specifically for healthcare practices. Using natural language processing technology, VoCall allows patients to easily manage their own appointments by phone – saving time and improving the overall experience for patients, providers, and practice employees.

“Sixty-five percent of all patients prefer to schedule appointments by phone and based on our research, it takes a scheduler, on average, 4 to 6 minutes to change an appointment. This can erode the patient experience and takes valuable time away from the staff,” said Paul.

He continued, “VoCall is capable of handling the vast majority of these types of calls to a typical medical practice and makes it easier for patients to change, confirm, or cancel their appointments over the phone. This leads to improved operational efficiency and resource allocation, true cost savings, business continuity, and enhanced patient engagement.”

Improving the way scheduling is handled creates a significant business opportunity for medical practices of all sizes. Today, using voice technology, such as Alexa and Siri, is natural, intuitive, and easily accessible and can often be more convenient than logging on to an online portal.

Paul continues, “Without a smart technology solution in place to improve scheduling management, medical practices are wasting valuable time and resources that could be spent doing more important and productive tasks. In essence, VoCall helps practices deliver a better overall experience for the staff, physicians, and patients.”

VoCall is the only voice scheduling assistant using natural language technology that integrates with Allscripts Practice Management to fully automate the patient scheduling workflow. The software solution has been tested and certified by the Allscripts Developer Program team.

The VoCall team will be hosting a webinar on Thursday, April 29, 2021 at 1:00 EDT to share more information on how voice technology can be used to improve a medical practice’s operations. In addition to a demonstration of how the software works, attendees will be joined by current users who will share their experience with VoCall and the impact it has had on their practice.

Allscripts clients who are interested in a powerful new way to streamline scheduling, increase operational efficiency, and improve overall patient engagement are encouraged to register for the App of the Month webinar. Additional information about what VoCall has to offer can be found on the Allscripts Application Store or on the VoCall website.
