I find this so upsetting. Several months ago I actually attended a "CME" program in Las Vegas (where i practice) that i think it was "sponsored" by HDL and this Dr. Voros was one of the speakers (obviously he's doing something that is either financially beneficial to HDL or he's getting paid on the side from them) whatever the case is it seemed at that time strange to me that they would send him to speak to folks like us (cardiologists and family practice etc) who actually see patients. Apparently when i asked him if he's ever treated a patient? His response was NO. So i asked him "have you even ordered an HDL test?" after looking left and right, he responded NO. to my surprise this guy has no clue what it is like to be in practice and the short time we have between patients and the liabilities we have if we order all these tests and Not knowing or being able to follow up on!

So here is HDL sending a "medical expert" who knows nothing about their test. He hasn't even ordered one test. this is laughable.

needless to say i am upset because i wasted that morning listening to him.
