Dr. Jeffrey Ayers

Dr. Ayers considers his work as a creative twist to a cool science experiment.

SALT LAKE CITY (PRWEB)
November 18, 2021

Dr. Jeffrey Ayers is excited to share his passion for non-surgical cosmetic services that maintain a natural yet youthful appearance. The field of aesthetics changes often and Dr. Ayers is a perpetual learner who also enjoys sharing what he learns with newer practitioners.

Dr. Ayers has practiced medicine in Utah for 26 years. While working for Intermountain Healthcare, he realized medicine would evolve, requiring professional diversity. As a result, he sought additional training and discovered medical aesthetics.

After joining the National Institute of Medical Aesthetics, he spent 12+ years as their medical director. While there, he continued developing his artistic skill for aesthetics and contributed to the professional training programs offered.

Dr. Ayers has a bachelor’s degree in biology from Westmont College and completed his medical degree at Des Moines University. He then completed his family medicine residency at Camp Pendleton Naval Hospital and served as a staff family doctor in Sasebo, Japan as a commissioned naval officer for three years.

Dr. Ayers considers his work as a creative twist to a cool science experiment. Through his continued commitment to exploring different ways to expand or enhance his career – he met nurse injector, J. Nielson (now a DNP!). Nielson had the vision, the passion, and the confidence to present herself as an artist.

Aesthetic injections rely heavily on science and anatomy, yet it wasn’t until then that he started understanding the art of assessing and treating a face that he owned his artistic nature. Once he allowed himself to think outside of the scientific box and enjoy the process of sculpting and enhancing the face, his perspective changed, adopting the expression “the art and science of skin.”

Dr. Ayers enjoys many of the services offered at the Gallery of Aesthetics. On any given day, he would jump at the chance to have a HydraFacial®. This service mildly exfoliates the skin and infuses serums and boosters, leaving the skin feeling clean, refreshed, and soft. In addition, in as little as 30 minutes he can also have a fractional laser resurfacing (MOXI) that has very little downtime. He also believes the most important step in skincare is sunscreen. A regiment of antioxidants, anti-aging products, and sunscreen will correct and protect the skin moving forward.

He is inspired by many artists and enjoys contemporary abstract to realism. His first recollection of an artist he enjoyed as a child was Andrew Wyeth (USA), and he recalls the dog sleeping on the bed, called “Master Bedroom,” as a favorite.

Also enjoying works of:

Didier Lourenco (Spain) for the messages to enjoy life and not to be invisible.

Danny McBride (Canada) who also had a career transition from musician to artist, painting women who are confident, poised, and successful.

Dr. Ayers is thrilled to invite you to the Gallery of Aesthetics so you can enjoy the space, art, and the broad range of services provided by their amazing team.

Symptomatical – Symptom Screening and Health Tracking Platform for Schools

The primary goal of Symptomatical — help to stay ahead of the curve and ensure a safe school environment.

NEW YORK (PRWEB)
November 18, 2021

Symptomatical launches a platform that helps schools to move daily student Covid-19 screenings online. Parents can quickly and easily submit daily health information about their children and Covid-19 symptoms online before entering school buildings.

“A new screening method that allows your school to stay open.”

Symptomatical offers additional features to ensure safety to students and schools. It enables offline learning by providing screening results tracking, departments and location management, comprehensive reporting, customizable questionnaire, and more.

The primary goal of Symptomatical — help to stay ahead of the Covid-19 curve and ensure a safe school environment.

How does the online screening process work?

In the app, parents answer the questions if their child is experiencing symptoms. They are based on the state’s regulations and CDC documents. After that, the parents see if their child can enter the school premises or stay home. Finally, the school leaders see information about daily statuses in the dashboard.

“To keep kids safe… I know that in my children’s school there were 2 cases disclosed like that. So it helps to disclose cases.” – Assad, Toronto, public-funded college, 10 000 students.

The app sends automatic reminders before the classes begin. No downloads are needed. Parents can complete a form each morning using a smartphone app or a website. The school administration sees daily results in the dashboard. In addition, it can easily create reports for school districts if required. School principals mention that similar apps have already helped them disclose cases among students.

How Does It Affect Schools?

According to recent research, offline education is more effective compared to online learning. This is because students understand the materials better when they can directly meet their lecturers. Using daily screening apps, schools can resume offline learning and improve their students’ performance.

CEO of Symptomatical Iva Kozlovskaya started platform development when “several schools requested help in moving the health screening process online to keep the health of each student under control. Symptomatical makes daily health screenings and temperature assessments easier. Parents need just a couple of minutes to respond to the required questions about childrens’ well-being before reporting to school.”

Ambassador Program

the best way to reach people is with people

PLANO, Texas (PRWEB)
November 18, 2021

Epiq MD, Inc., the convergence of primary care, mental health, preventative, and wellness programs through an online healthcare platform, announces the launch of its Brand Ambassador Program today. This groundbreaking initiative will combine community, entrepreneurship, and technology to bring healthcare solutions to the 80 plus million uninsured and underinsured, hardworking U.S. residents who have been left behind by ever-increasing insurance and medical costs.

The Ambassador Program is the next step in Epiq MD’s vision towards “fixing a broken system” – that system being healthcare in America. Epiq MD believes this initiative will result in a new wave of entrepreneurship, education and health & wellness in communities throughout the nation. In Epiq MD’s existing efforts to bring healthcare solutions to these communities, they have perceived a glaring hole, the desire for independent employment. It’s estimated that 79 million people will start home based businesses in the next 5 years. Epiq MD CEO, Alejandro Rodriguez commented, “there has been a clear rising need and inclination for people to become self-employed and we believe those who have a passion for health and wellness will be given their jump start through programs like our Ambassador Program.” Mr. Rodriguez further commented, “regarding ideal customers, our target audience is everywhere, all-encompassing members from 3 or 4 economic classes, workers in the restaurant, hotel, retail and construction industries, residents in both urban and rural areas, every type of household, and spans four major generations – Baby Boomers, Gen-X’ers, Millennials and Generation Z.”

The Company undoubtedly believes that its audience transcends class, color or age, however they are equally adamant about the importance of acknowledging many of the alarming facts within. According to the Kaiser Family Foundation (KFF), 8% of White Americans, 11% of Black, 20% of Hispanic and an astounding 22% of American Indians and Alaska Natives lack health insurance coverage. While socioeconomic factors contribute to the high rates of uninsured and underinsured Americans, mistrust in the medical system and language barriers also play a key role in accessing quality healthcare, and/or, obtaining a healthy lifestyle. Epiq MD believes that its Ambassador Program will create diverse community leaders, who will be instrumental in teaching their circles about the Epiq MD platform and how healthcare and wellness should and can be accessible. Epiq MD Director, Michael Ladner commented, “The primary objective of the Ambassador is to effectively bring smart healthcare services to their neighbors, communities, consumers and employer groups across the nation. Our Ambassadors are the embodiment of the Live Epiq, Be Epiq mentality.”

The Company is confident its Ambassador Program will give millions of underserved Americans the potential to become community leaders and take the reins of healthcare into their own hands, while also earning a meaningful income stream for their own household. Epiq MD CEO, Alejandro Rodriguez stated, “the best way to reach people is with people. I will always trust my loved ones and neighbors alike over the faceless machine that has turned away millions of Americans. We are providing training, support and the very tools needed for anyone, regardless of background, to take their health, their income potential and their community into their own hands. We are putting a face on healthcare, and the best part is it’s a face you know. It’s a face that delivers your mail, it’s a face that makes your morning coffee, it’s the face of a mother, a father. It’s a face you trust, believe in and love. That’s what the Ambassador Program is all about and that’s what makes it truly special.”

The Ambassador Program is currently offered in four states during what Mr. Rodriguez would categorize as a “soft launch mode”, however the company has extensive plans for aggressive expansion, future deployments, and marketing events that will go through the end of 2022. Mr. Rodriguez stated, “We feel that it is vital we lay a firm foundation of training and support with our early Ambassadors, making sure they are properly equipped to accommodate our future desired growth.”

As part of the Ambassador Program reveal, the Company has created an informative website featuring a reveal video, an FAQ section and other introductory materials. The Company is also making available an abbreviated version of the Ambassador Program’s Brand & Style Book, which Rodriguez states, “will effectively relay both the spirit of and the brass tacks of this organic distribution channel and income opportunity for those that share our passion”. Those interested in pursuing the Ambassador opportunity as an income earning option for their household can also schedule a conference call with a member of our support team by simply emailing us at ambassadorsupport@epiqmd.com.
