February 1, 2016 By Anthony Slonim 1 Comment

Focusing solely on economic indicators is not enough to answer the question, “How are we doing?” We need to consider other metrics that reflect our health

As business leaders, we often rely on metrics like growth and the unemployment rate to gauge our state’s vitality.

See a Doctor 24/7: Telemedicine Options Create Better Connectivity

July 1, 2015 By Mike Murphy Leave a Comment

Telemedicine is making healthcare more convenient allowing you to see a board certified, US-based doctor 24/7 from your computer, smart phone or tablet.

My family and I were on vacation in California earlier this year when our youngest suddenly came down with a nasty stomach bug in the middle of the night.

August 1, 2013 By Michael Resnick, MD Leave a Comment

Age Management Medicine is another approach and interestingly it started right here in Nevada 15 years ago.

Many of you now reading this are over 40 and beginning to notice the signs of aging. You may have put on a few extra pounds, especially around the middle.
