Mission Statement

The mission of the American Academy of Procedural Medicine (AAOPM) is to achieve excellence in continuing medical education (CME) through educational activities built on evidence-based medicine and the latest standards of care. The CME programs offered by the AAOPM provides activities to meet the participants’ identified educational needs and to support their life-long learning principles of improving physicians’ competency skills in aesthetics, regenerative, interventional pain management, and traditional medical knowledge updates. The AAOPM will sustain a rigorous program of continuing medical education that impacts the provision of health care in those areas by focusing on relevant curricula taught by our renowned faculty of physicians and specialists in these fields.

The AAOPM has trained thousands of physicians and medical professionals over the past 24 years. Probably the most reliable way to evaluate a company’s performance is to watch your colleagues and see what they have to say about our training programs. Here are just a few videos taken from live events.

How it All Began

The AAOPM was created in 1998 by a group of physicians and other health care consultants to serve as a valuable resource for Medical Practitioners of all specialties. Although workshops are scheduled just about every weekend throughout the entire United States (including Canada, Asia and South America), The AAOPM corporate training facility is located in Fort Lauderdale, Florida where we can be contacted directly.

Since 1998, the AAOPM has served Physicians, Nurses, PAs, and Dentists by providing an unmatched level of education and training in Aesthetics, Regenerative Medicine, and Interventional Pain Management, more specifically, instruction on procedures that can readily be integrated into an office based setting.

These procedures have been selected not only to help enhance the level of care and satisfaction for your patient but also to maximize the income potential of the medical practice. The AAOPM has successfully trained over 100,000 health care professionals, more than any other procedural training organization in the United States. The AAOPM. is the most imitated organization, however, the AAOPM. remains the only organization to have the resources and physician staff to offer the variety of training programs that makes us the leader in medical training.

Certification


The American Academy of Procedural Medicine is recognized for the Certification pathways available in Aesthetics, Anti-Aging/Functional Medicine, and Pain Management. Upon successful completion of the educational workshop program, attendees will be awarded their completion certification.

For those who want the added recognition and distinction have the option to pursue the Board Certification Pathway and become Board Certified in their chosen specialty. Board Certification requirements are described beneath the certification tab but generally physicians must attend designated courses, complete online practical exams and successfully complete their written and oral exam. After the 6-month fellowship, Physicians are eligible to sit for the board exam and become certified.

Faculty and Staff

Office Staff

The AAOPM is a full time organization with a dedicated staff of personnel working behind the scenes at our corporate headquarters in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. From our main center our team of staff professionals ensures everything is prepared correctly so that training materials, handouts, instructional video, consent forms, charts, documented protocols, and all our materials are available and distributed to each student. As medicine is constantly evolving, The AAOPM. certifies that the information you are provided is the most accurate and up to date.

Physician Advisory Board and Instructors

The AAOPM advisory board work diligently at creating your training materials and certification criteria to ensure you have received the best training possible in your specialty.

The quality of any training event is completely dependent on the performance of our instructors. Our instructors are top notch in their field but most importantly, are exceptional at teaching. A very well credentialed physician does not necessarily translate to a great teacher. Our advisory board carefully reviews the evaluations we receive after each and every workshop to make sure the audience was pleased with the performance of each instructor.

Hands-On Training

AAOPM has pioneered this type of training and our Physician staff closely supervises each attendee during the actual procedure. The hands on training is only completed when attendees have completed the hands on component of the training and feel adequately prepared, as well as when a Physician instructor evaluates the performance and skill of the student during the training. Students will not be awarded a completion certification unless they can properly demonstrate proficiency in a given procedure.

Our Physician Faculty is dedicated to the training and care about each of the participating attendees – many of our instructors have worked for the AAOPM. for the past 17 years or longer. At an AAOPM event it is very common to see instructors working past 7 or 8:00pm with 2 or 3 students who have extra questions and request a little extra help.

Resources

The AAOPM does not only provide workshops and seminars, but also provides resources to find other valuable tools to use in your practice.
