Richmond, VA-Based Financial Professionals, Dan and Carina Cottner Share Why Shady Grove Fertility’s 100% Refund Guarantee Program for IVF Makes Perfect Financial Sense

Leave a comment


Dan and Carina Cottner with children, Oliver and Quinn

This program offers a unique financial safety net that provides patients with the opportunity to pay a fixed amount for up to six fresh in vitro fertilization (IVF) or donor egg cycles and any subsequent frozen embryo transfers. If the patient does not take home a baby, SGF gives a full refund.*


RICHMOND, Va. (PRWEB)

Shady Grove Fertility (SGF), a pioneer in offering an IVF treatment refund guarantee, known as Shared Risk, was the solution that offered Dan and Carina Cottner, financial professionals from Richmond, VA, the opportunity to start the family of their dreams.

“Couples who go through infertility often don’t want to talk about it. And their friends and families are too scared to ask. That used to be us. We didn’t tell our parents what we were going through until our second miscarriage. But once we did, we realized we weren’t alone. In fact, seven of our friends were either going through or had been through the same struggle.”

Dan and Carina recalled very vividly the day they received a call with unfortunate news that their eighth assisted pregnancy attempt had failed. It was devastating news, to say the least. And, to worsen the blow, this was the couple’s last IVF attempt that was covered by insurance.

“We considered ourselves among the lucky ones with generous benefits offered through our employer, Capital One,” said Dan, Director of Mobile Design. “But our luck had just run out, and we were left with the decision to keep going and fund it ourselves, or just accept that biological children were not in the cards for us.”

“This was my low point. We were emotionally and spiritually exhausted. Not to mention, I was physically drained,” said Carina, Senior Manager of Customer Experience Research.

Hopeless and completely defeated, Dan and Carina didn’t know what to do. “I never questioned whether we were going to continue the journey, I just didn’t know how we were going to pay for it. So based on the options in front of us, we had a big decision to make. Do we gamble on one more shot, or do we pay more and get six more tries through SGF’s Shared Risk Program?” said Dan.

Dan adds, “Now, you’re not guaranteed a baby, that’s not how it works. But, you’re guaranteed up to six more tries. And if none take, you get your money back.”

“So this was a no brainer,” added Carina. “We had to go with option 2. Knowing my track record with miscarriages and failed pregnancy attempts, there was no way I was going to throw all that money at just one more try. What if I miscarried again? That’s more money down the drain, along with our hopes and dreams of a family.”

The couple explored their financial options and, under the guidance of their financial advisor, ended up taking out a 401K loan—an option they didn’t even know existed, ultimately sacrificing some of their long-term retirement savings to start their family right away—to pay for Shared Risk.

Fortunately for the Cottners, one year to the day from their last failed pregnancy attempt—the day Carina described as “the lowest day of my life”—their twins Quinn and Oliver were born.

“Our journey to start our family was emotionally, spiritually, and financially taxing. And while our story has a happy ending, it serves as a constant reminder in both our personal and professional lives that finances are a means to an end, they’re not the end themselves,” added Dan. “We hope our story provides a sense of joy, and we’re so thankful to have found this program.”

SGF’s refund guarantee program was developed nearly 3 decades years ago specifically to help patients without insurance who are faced with a difficult dilemma when undergoing fertility treatment—continue with fertility treatment at a high cost and have the risk of being left without a child.

This program offers a unique financial safety net that provides patients with the opportunity to pay a fixed amount for up to six fresh in vitro fertilization (IVF) or donor egg cycles and any subsequent frozen embryo transfers. If the patient does not take home a baby, SGF gives a full refund.*

“Before we found SGF, I remember having to answer the tough questions when it came to paying for fertility treatment, ‘well, how badly do you want a baby?’ and ‘is the risk of it not working really worth your savings, the debt, and the sacrifice?’ Facing those tough decisions felt like a sucker punch I didn’t see coming. My head was still reeling from the first blow that we couldn’t get pregnant on our own, but then to face the fact we’d have to pay a ton just for the chance to try? I felt defeated from the start,” shared one SGF patient who also used SGF’s Shared Risk Program.

“And then we learned about SGF’s Shared Risk Program … and, not to sound cliché, but my hope was restored. I no longer had to grapple with the ‘what ifs’ and weigh what seemed practical in my head against my heart’s greatest desire, to be a Mom. Every other center I researched, to try again, you pay again. That felt cruel to me. But with SGF, we had many chances and the risk of walking away empty handed and with empty pockets was eliminated. Eliminated!!” she added.

R3 Stem Cell Online Training Course Now 50% Off Through January 1, 2020

Leave a comment


stem cell training course

Use Code FIFTYOFF

Our expert trainers narrate their procedures and we have a professional video team so the lessons are first rate! The course is sure to put providers on a path to be a local leader in regenerative therapies.


SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. (PRWEB)

R3 Stem Cell is now offering its comprehensive Online Stem Cell Training Course at 50% off through the rest of 2019. The code to use during checkout is FIFTYOFF and applies to both the one month access and the one year as well.

R3 is the nation’s leader in regenerative therapies with over 12,000 successful stem cell procedures performed nationwide. A couple years ago, R3 began offering in person provider training workshops, which routinely achieve 5 star ratings from attendees. However, R3 understands how difficult it can be to carve out time from one’s practice (including travel) to gain the desired knowledge and skills to become a local leader in regenerative therapies.

The online course includes excellent lessons on musculoskeletal procedures, aesthetics and more. There are presentations on biologics as well such as stem cells, growth factors, cytokines and exosomes.

So what R3 accomplished with the online regenerative training is to place all the presentations and procedure videos from the in person training into the course. Providers can take the course anywhere, anytime and learn topics that include sales and marketing, biologic education, and lessons on supplements, PRP and ultrasound.

There are over 25 procedure videos, which include several types of administration. All types of providers will benefit from the course, including DO, MD, NP, ND, PA along with practice owners and administrators.

Because R3 offers the in person workshops frequently, the online content is updated a lot. This is exactly why the course is offered for either one month access or one year. Some providers will prefer to revisit the Course for a refresher and regular updates.

According to R3 CEO David Greene, “Our expert trainers narrate their procedures and we have a professional video team so the lessons are first rate! The course is sure to put providers on a path to be a local leader in regenerative therapies.”

Providers who complete the course receive a Certificate of Completion. For course registration, visit THIS PAGE or call (844) GET-STEM for additional information.

Using Quantum Physics to Create Your Life-Suzanne Adams on the Shamangelic Healing Podcast

Leave a comment


Suzanne Adams

Give yourself permission to grow out of unhealthy relationships or toxic environments


SEDONA, Ariz. (PRWEB)

When Shamangelic Healing founder, Anahata Ananda and Suzanne Adams, CEO and co-founder of Ignite and Expand got together on the Shamangelic Healing Podcast to discuss techniques using quantum physics to change people’s lives, the number of downloads skyrocketed. With a trending focus on learning ways to use bio-hacking to enhance a person’s body, productivity shortcuts to upgrade lifestyle, meditation to balance the work/personal-life dynamic and living life with purpose, Suzanne shares her techniques she’s discovered while working from the quantum level. Her basis is firmly grounded in the foundation that everything is vibrating energy. From that premise, she lays out a process of attracting situations and people which are beneficial in assisting with moving toward goals more quickly.

Adams explains the underlying principles of “The Law of Attraction” and how emotional intensity can amplify manifestation and abundance. She states one of the most key elements to attract or repel that which is desired, is being aware of the current vibration one is in at any given time. On the smallest level, cells are vibrating at various frequencies, emitting messages out to their immediate world. From larger scale perspective, the cumulative effect of the energy being given off will begin to affect the vibration of the person as a whole. Adams explains that by understanding the value of stretching limiting beliefs and habits, one can begin to create vibrations which result in tangible changes in life. Anahata has implemented this knowledge into her online Quantum Leap Program which people can use to completely change the course of their lives over 12 months.

Anahata and Adams both point out the importance of keeping vibrations at the highest, most productive, healthy levels possible. An immediate influence are the interactions with people we are around the most. “Select your circle of influence wisely and give yourself permission to grow out of unhealthy relationships or toxic environments,” states Adams. “Clear, conscious communication and boundary setting is a must,” Anahata adds. Lowered vibrations due to stress, negative people or pessimistic thoughts can be a big influence. Both women describe the traps of living an inauthentic life to please others and how important it is to dream big. Adams outlines how to change the outcome resulting from blocks to successful manifestation and prosperity. Anahata assists people all over the world by providing the tools for maintaining healthy, conscious relationships through one of her online courses.

Suzanne Adams is on a mission to help people reach their highest level of potential. She is a thought leader in the field of spirituality, personal development, and heart-centered entrepreneurship. Adams is a bestselling author and transformational coach and TEDx presenter helping heart-centered entrepreneurs create and scale soulful businesses.

Anahata blends the compassion and tenderness of an Angel and the wisdom and strength of a Shaman to guide profound journeys of core healing and spiritual awakening. As a Certified High-Performance Coach, Shamanic Healer and Soul Guide, Anahata has guided thousands of individuals across the globe through core life shifts, helping them to turn their life around and create the life of their dreams. She is the host of the internationally acclaimed Shamangelic Healing Podcast which is designed as a platform for sharing deep authentic conversations about REAL LIFE issues. She offers deep healing through in-person sessions in Sedona, Arizona and supportive online courses for self-paced, at home learning. https://shamangelichealing.com

Trivedi addresses innovative and thought-provoking topics at each workshop. He tackles the questions that have plagued mankind since its inception such as Divine connection, belief systems and personal growth.

In a recent workshop, participants shared their comments about how Guruji Trivedi and the Trivedi Effect have impacted them:

Faith Pyka said, “Although we can never, in this lifetime, become like Guruji, he is a huge inspiration to rise out of the muck and mire and to blossom like the lotus. The most difficult thing for me over the years of helping people is to let people have their own experiences and to not rescue them. This is something I have been working on, and I have learned I am responsible for changing the outcome in my life. I am grateful to have God and Guruji on my side.”

Gary Gerber wrote, “Thank you Guruji for this day. The story of the three monks is so meaningful. You have given so much guidance in how to connect with the divine.”

After Dahryn Trivedi spoke, Liz Feeney said, “Thank you, Dahryn, you shared some very clear and practical wisdom from a fresh perspective, which of course gives it a whole new dimension. Your discussion on discipline and possibility (and the correlation between the two) was a great reminder for me to check my own discipline and commitment in some areas of my life.”

Each workshop is filled with Divine inspirations, insightful commentary, and deep thought-provoking discourses on topics ranging from human conditioning, physical and mental issues such as sleep disorders, depression, anxiety, and other common life challenges to the development of deeper consciousness and includes a divine energy transmission.

Big Buzz was named a Top Colorado Agency with a 5.0 rating by Clutch, a DC-based B2B ratings and reviews organization. This accolade was based on Clutch’s extensive research and client interviews. Shortly thereafter, in August, the agency was honored with recognition as a Top Healthcare Digital Mark


DENVER (PRWEB)

Big Buzz continues to build upon a record year in 2019, significantly increasing revenues and staffing as it charges forward into healthcare and medical technology. The agency – which primarily serves the biosciences, specialty clinic and senior living industries – was also recognized for multiple awards, while team members spoke at prominent events nationwide.

In June, Big Buzz was named a Top Colorado Agency with a 5.0 rating by Clutch, a DC-based B2B ratings and reviews organization. This accolade was based on Clutch’s extensive research and client interviews. Shortly thereafter, in August, the agency was honored with recognition as a Top Healthcare Digital Marketing Agency by B2B titans UpCity.

Many of these accomplishments came in the wake of a significant rebrand, wherein the agency consolidated its industry-specialized brands Big Buzz Brands (dentistry) Bloom (senior living) and Viv (medical device) into the singular Big Buzz identity. The consolidation allowed the team to increase production and utilization by streamlining internal marketing efforts and reallocating bandwidth.

“When I founded the firm 12 years ago, I was inspired by other female entrepreneurs to scale the firm to more than $1 million in annual revenues. Last year for the first time, we joined the 1.7% of women-owned businesses that have broken through that glass ceiling, and this year we are grateful to be tracking to do the same.”

AltMed Florida Celebrates its 10th Medical Cannabis Dispensary with the Newest MÜV™ Location Grand Opening in Fort Myers on Nov. 9

Leave a comment


AltMed Florida Dispensary Design

Our MÜV dispensaries are unlike anything in the state and we’re excited to invite licensed patients throughout Lee County and beyond to visit our newest state-of-the-art location in Fort Myers.


SARASOTA, Fla. (PRWEB)

AltMed Florida, one of the fastest growing Medical Marijuana Treatment Centers (MMTC) in Florida (source: OMMU), has announced the grand opening of its 10th MÜV™ Medical Cannabis Dispensary at 10 a.m. Saturday Nov.9 (pending final approvals) at 10993 Colonial Blvd., Suite 101 in Fort Myers, Florida.

AltMed’s MÜV Dispensary in Fort Myers, the company’s second to feature a drive-through window, is conveniently located near the Crossroads Shopping Center near State Highway 82. It will offer an extensive selection of award-winning products including flower, pre-rolls, a wide range of vaporizer pens, metered dose inhalers, topicals, oral sprays, patent-pending encapsulation formulations in its Tinctures, 72-Hour Transdermal patches and transdermal gels. MÜV is also recognized for having one of the widest selections of concentrates for patients needing macro-dosing options.

“Our dispensaries set the standard for quality products, service and overall patient experience at our current locations and we’re excited to offer our premium MÜV medical cannabis brand to even more people as we expand our presence in Southwest Florida,” said AltMed Florida CEO John Tipton. “Our MÜV dispensaries are unlike anything in the state and we’re excited to invite licensed patients throughout Lee County and beyond to visit our newest state-of-the-art location in Fort Myers.”

Like AltMed Florida’s nine other locations (Apollo Beach, Clearwater, Gainesville, Jacksonville/San Marco, Jacksonville Beach, Longwood/Orlando, Sarasota, Tampa and Wellington/West Palm), the new Fort Myers MÜV Dispensary stands out from others because it’s designed as a premium experience. Think Apple store, with a modern, open-concept design and expert staff with extensive training.

During the grand opening, all licensed Florida medical cannabis patients will receive 25 percent off their entire first purchase and the first 100 patients will receive a MÜV SWAG bag with their purchase. Patients can also order online at http://www.muvfl.com for express pickup or delivery.

The MÜV brand already has a wide following in other legal medical cannabis markets, including Arizona, where it has won five Best of Arizona medical cannabis awards. MÜV products are sold exclusively in Florida at MÜV dispensaries because, unlike other states, Florida does not allow wholesale of product between license holders – only products that license holders make themselves can be sold in their dispensaries.

For more information about the new ADA-compliant Fort Myers MÜV Medical Cannabis Dispensary, including hours and available MÜV products, visit http://www.MÜVFL.com.

AltMed Florida is on pace to open 40 MÜV Medical Cannabis Dispensaries across the state, all supplied by its 200,000-square-foot, state-of-the-art cultivation facility.
