***PLEASE FOLLOW ALL STATE AND LOCAL HEALTH MANDATES***

I am pleased to announce a new VNG Seminar co-sponsored by Secure Health, Inc. and A.T. Still University featuring Difra Instrumentation VNG technology. Dr. Troy D. Hale, Assistant Professor, A.T. Still University and Secure Health have worked together for nearly three years, leading up to the new VNG training seminar. The course title is "Introduction to the Administration and Interpretation of VNG Tests."

Dr. Hale assists Secure Health's clients with report over-reads, testing techniques and answering questions for various conditions that are encountered. This VNG training opportunity is for those interested in expanding their knowledge and expertise for vestibular testing, diagnostics, and treatment.  The VNG training seminar is an introduction to VNG report interpretation and hands-on VNG technique training featuring Difra Instrumentation.

We are hosting a class size of approximately 30 - 35 to make it a more intimate learning environment. Difra VNG equipment and caloric irrigators will be available for hands-on demonstrations. We will also have our Better Balance Analyzer balance assessment platform available for demonstrating vestibular assessment and basic vestibular rehab therapy exercises.  Plus, we will discuss how you can attract more patients in need of vestibular diagnostics.

You are invited to participate in our new VNG Seminar and we look forward to meeting you there.

Sincerely,

Daniel B. Scherer

CEO, Secure Health, Inc.
