Podcasts, Forums, and Conferences

On This Page:

* Please Note: If you are a member of the media and would like to interview DogtorJ (John B. Symes, D.V.M.), please visit the Contact section.

*Conferences- Below are some of the conferences at which I was a speaker. I am now speaking at both veterinary and human meetings and conferences on the topics of food intolerance, the dietary control of epilepsy, and the roles of viruses and lectins in our health and that of our pets.

*TV and Radio Appearances- I recently attended the National Publicity Summit in New York City where I was able to meet with over 100 members of the media, including executives from TV, radio, magazines, and Internet radio. This was in preparation for a national media campaign that I am about to launch in order to get this vital information directly into the hands of the public. This developing area of DogtorJ.com will list my appearances as they are scheduled.

*Podcasts- Below are the links to a few podcasts that I have done on Animal Talk Naturally.

*Forums- Below are a few of the forums that I read and contribute to. My research is in both veterinary and human medicine so I spend time on both types. My special interest is in epilepsy and other neurological problems and am always looking for forums to read so feel free to send me any links that you feel are important.

*Conferences

Here are the main conferences at which I have given formal lectures. The majority have been annual veterinary conferences, both for conventional and holistic audiences, but one was an interesting group known as the A4M- the American Academy of Anti-Aging Medicine. This association, of which Dr. Joe Mercola is a member, focuses on the many ways in which we can extend and improve the quality of human life. Getting involved with them was a very natural thing for me to do. Some of the transcripts for these talks can be found right here on Dogtorj.com.

The 2005 Annual AHVMA Conference- September 13-19, 2005 Ogden, Utah

The 14th Annual International Congress on Anti-Aging Medicine- July, 2006 Chicago, Illinois

The 2007 North American Veterinary Conference- January, 2007 Orlando, Florida

The 2008 North American Veterinary Conference- January 19-23, 2008 Orlando, Florida

*Forums

Here are a few of the forums on which I spend time reading and contributing. These can be a wealth of information and encouragement, as people share their personal findings and success stories. You can usually do a search for "dogtorj" to find my posts.

http://lab-retriever.net/board/forumdisplay.php?f=13 - The Labrador Retriever Chat Board. I have an ongoing thread here serving as a storehouse for testimonials regarding the successful use of The G.A.R.D..

http://neurotalk.psychcentral.com/index.php - NeuroTalk Communities. I usually write on the Celiac and Epilepsy sections.

http://brain.hastypastry.net/forums/ - BrainTalk Communities- Unfortunately, I was banned from this forum in Feb. 2007 after posting a thread asking for the forum's help in aiding a newly diagnosed food intolerant woman in Iraq. The moderator (incorrectly) viewed my post as "Solicitation" and banned me from further contribution. This ban has never been lifted. It was one of the most frustrating experiences I have had in all of my years doing this, but what can you do? I miss the interaction with my friends on the epilepsy, MS, and many forums on which I wrote.

I hope you enjoyed your time here and got something important from your stay. It is my goal to help all of mankind navigate through the jungle of medical information now available on the Internet and find the truth about the origins of what we call "disease" as well as discover the natural solutions for these conditions.

We do have our health's destiny in our own hands more than we've ever imagined, certainly more than most have ever been told. Think naturally and the answer will come.

You can now go to the new site!

The New DogtorJ.com is done! Yes, the time has finally come for this homemade Website to go the way of the buffalo. I know that you all join me in looking forward to using a site that is better organized and more accessible....prettier, too! I've even corrected most of those annoying typos (I hope).

Feel free to check it out now at www.dogtorj.com. I am still working hard to populate all of the pages so don't worry if a link does not work. They should all be active in the near future. In the meantime, this current site will remain on-line until I get all of the bugs worked out.

Let me know what you think! It's not too late to make some changes.

Dogtor J

***********************************************

I would still like to hear from you personally, though.

I used to have a nice little form in this space that would allow readers to send me a quick comment or testimonial. Unfortunately, as the Interent goes, I started getting 50-100 junk emails through this form and had to remove it.

So, until the new Website is up and running (soon!), I will have to ask people to formulate an Email of their own and send it. I do want to hear from you so I would really appreciate it if you could take the time to do this.

Simply title your Email "Visitor Comment" and include your name, occupation, comment/testimonial and return Email address (if you want to be contacted) and send it to:

dogtorj @ dogtorj.com (Just remove the spaces on each side of the @ sign)

Please do not use this form to ask medical questions. See the Contact section for instructions for sending DogtorJ an Email inquiry concerning a medical condition.

***********************************************

Great News!

DogtorJ.com will be getting a major facelift in the very near future. Yes, the time has finally come for this homemade Website to be taken over by someone who actually knows what they are doing. I know that you all join me in looking forward to having the site better organized and more accessible. It'll be prettier, too!

This is taking place for a number of reasons, the most of important of which will be revealed in the upcoming months. Yes, the book is finally in the works but there will be a major awareness project to go along with it.

So, please stay tuned. Anyone who would like to get on my mailing list can do so by simply using the visitor's comment area (like the one above) found at the bottom of each page.

Onward and upward!
