The courses are provided at a substantially reduced price to medical professionals so you can experience the benefits of the programs and thereby refer your patients to them.

RLMI, a leader in Lifestyle Medicine education, created these courses to address the growing prevalence of chronic disease and its burden on the healthcare system, and to enable both healthcare providers and patients to experience greater health. Qualified practitioners can earn up to 34 credits by participating in all three courses.

RLMI also offers free Lifestyle Medicine Grand Rounds case presentations, a monthly, one-hour, Zoom-based event that includes 1 AMA and IBLM CME credit. 

During this monthly interactive Zoom presentation, a challenging case is presented to a panel of leading Lifestyle Medicine experts. Audience participation is highly encouraged, as together we gain valuable insights into patient care management and build consensus around diagnosis and management. LMGR is intended for all medical practitioners, whatever their level of experience with Lifestyle Medicine.
