Our CME programs provide activities to meet participants' identified educational needs and support life-long learning principles—improving physicians' competency skills in aesthetics, regenerative medicine, interventional pain management, and traditional medical knowledge updates.

The AAOPM sustains a rigorous program of continuing medical education that impacts healthcare provision by focusing on relevant curricula taught by our renowned faculty of physicians and specialists.

AAOPM Mission Statement

How It All Began

The AAOPM was created in 1998 by a group of physicians and healthcare 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.

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.

The AAOPM has successfully trained over 100,000 healthcare professionals—more than any other procedural training organization in the United States.

Pioneering Hands-On Training

AAOPM has pioneered hands-on procedural training. Our physician staff closely supervises each attendee during actual procedures. Training is only completed when attendees feel adequately prepared and a physician instructor evaluates their performance.

Students will not be awarded a completion certification unless they can properly demonstrate proficiency in a given procedure. Our physician faculty is dedicated to training—many instructors have worked with AAOPM for 17+ years.
