Conference Planning Committee

Over the years, our conference attendees have grown to respect, appreciate, and look forward to our groundbreaking, insightful, practice-changing curriculum that not only broadens their knowledge but also reawakens their passion for medicine.

AMMG’s conference planning committee ensures that every conference’s agenda stands up to that reputation and those high expectations.

Made up of noted industry leaders, AMMG’s planning committee guides the course for the conference agenda, seeking qualified presenters who are well-credentialed and experts in their field—and who can provide evidence-based lectures with comprehensive learning materials and adhere to ACCME’s stringent standards.

The planning committee reviews all faculty submissions, preferring topics that reflect noncommercial, new or leading-edge, evidence-based information for age management medicine clinicians.

He is a member of the Institute for Functional Medicine and the LDN research trust while seeing patients from across the United States and internationally who seek Functional Medicine and Longevity.

After his training he saw the real issues facing societies healthcare wasn’t a lack of access or medications, but rather not targeting the root causes of health issues and over medicating with a one-size-fits-all approach. He has set out to change this. He was an early adopter of Clinical Genomics where his novel approach involves using genetic information as well as biochemical markers and lifestyle to optimize health and wellness. By targeting underlying issues at their root, he is often able to wean people off chronic and harmful medications while restoring health and slowing the aging process. This approach strategically works on the gut microbiome, hormone optimization, and improving immune function.

Dr. Dinetz gives back to the community as a Voluntary Assistant Professor, Department of Family Medicine, University of Miami Miller School of Medicine. He also provides complimentary healthcare to the financially challenged. He is a community lecturer supporting small businesses and the wellness community.

Mark L. Gordon, M.D.

Originally a residency trained, board-certified Family Physician through Rush Presbyterian-St. Luke’s in Chicago, Illinois having graduated first in his class, Dr. Gordon subsequently veered into Clinical Orthopedics for 14 years with the State of California in defense worker’s compensation (QME, IME, AME, and IDE). Concurrently, he ventured into alternative and complementary medicine, integrating age management medicine theories into a program of sports rehabilitation using nutrition, exercise, supplementation, and Interventional Endocrinology. His first book, The Clinical Application of Interventional Endocrinology (2007) is used as a primer for physicians in age management medicine around the world. Since 2004, having found the relationship between his own hormonal deficiencies and traumatic brain injury (TBI), Dr. Gordon has spent the past 10 years researching and treating patients with TBI and hormonal dysfunction (military, sports, and civilians). He has become a learned proponent of the neuroendocrine theory of aging as promoted by Dr. Caleb Finch, a colleague at USC Medical School, where Dr. Gordon had provided service as clinical professor to 3rd year medical students. At present, Dr. Gordon is putting the final touches on his next book: Traumatic Brain Injury – A clinical approach to diagnosis and treatment (2014). Recently, Dr. Gordon was on the Joe Rogan Experience where information about TBI and hormones was presented during a 3-hour long program. The interest that was generated created a massive patient response not only nationally, but also internationally. Due to this response, Dr. Gordon is working on a training program in conjunction with his book, to recruit physicians that will take the overwhelming number of patient candidates into their practice. Additionally, Dr. Gordon has developed a number of revolutionary products such as Secretropin®, Secretropin Advanced®, DynaTropin®, and the Perfect Protocol® line of supplements. Dr. Gordon has been the Medical Director for CBS Studios since 2001, and Medical Consultant to a number of other major studios (HBO, Warner’s, Disney, and FX). As a consultant and past expert medical reviewer to the California Medical Board, he provides a level of rational services to his fellow physicians. In 2005 he obtained a pharmacy license from the State of California and in 2012 a Medical License in Florida. His ultimate goal is to bring patients back to a more youthful level of functioning—psychologically, physiologically, and physically.
