BodyLogicMD Introduces Area's First Bioidentical Hormone Therapy Practice

Louisville, KY - July 2009 - Men and women in the city that has it all can look and feel younger than ever as they enjoy what Louisville has to offer. BodyLogicMD, the leading network of bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) and age-management experts, is pleased to announce the opening of its newest practice, led by John Abell, M.D of Lousiville. With his focus on hormonal imbalance and other signs of aging related to perimenopause, menopause and andropause (the male menopause), Dr. Abell answers the growing demand for symptom relief among men and women in their 30s and older.

"I was trained ?by the book? in traditional medicine, but the field of anti-aging medicine sparked a passion for preventive medicine that has made all the difference in the way I practice," shares Dr. Abell. "The driving force behind my practice is to guide my patients through the aging process in a way that addresses the body's entire system and helps each patient benefit from the amazing advances in anti-aging medicine."

Dr. Abell's interest in preventive and anti-aging medicine began when he read Phillip Lee Miller's Life Extension Revolution (Bantam 2005). Within one year of reading the book, he completed the Fellowship in Anti-Aging and Regenerative Medicine. Dr. Abell's decision to partner with BodyLogicMD, the largest franchise of highly trained physicians specializing in bioidentical hormone therapy, fitness and nutrition, provides him with the perfect venue to work exclusively with men and women seeking relief from symptoms of hormonal balance brought on by the aging process.

"With a combination of BHRT and lifestyle improvement programs including fitness and nutrition, my patients report feeling better than they have in years," says Dr. Abell. "Interestingly, many express a common theme after they begin to see the results: Age isn't just a state of mind; it's the state of health you allow your body to have. I truly relish this opportunity to help my patients improve their states of health beyond what they ever imagined they could."
