TAMPA/ST. PETERSBURG –It’s a medi-spa filled world out there. And not all are what they appear. But inquiring minds want to know: What is all this anti-aging business all about? Dr. Lisbeth Roy, founder of the Anti-Aging & Aesthetic Institute (a3) will be holding a series of summer lectures from a physician’s perspective on the concept of anti-aging medicine and its practice. Seminars will be held in both Tampa and Sarasota, at Mise en Place’s Lafayette Room and the Longboat Key Club, respectively. Topics include: internal and external aspects of anti-aging medical practices, disease prevention, and longevity via overall health assessment and general wellness practices. Each program will offer a lecture portion, including food and beverage, followed by a question and answer session with Dr. Roy, and the opportunity to speak one on one with her and her staff.

“My patients continue to ask me questions and look for opportunities to learn the difference between real anti-aging solutions and clever marketing strategies. I have been asked to create an opportunity for people to learn about anti-aging from a physician's perspective and how we can all incorporate little things into our daily lives to help us live longer, healthier, more vital lives,” says Dr. Roy.

Dr. Lisbeth W. Roy, is available for interview. Interested parties should contact Brooke Palmer.

The next introductory session will be offered at Mise en Place on Tuesday, July 22nd, at 5:30 pm, in the Lafayette Room.
