“There are only two people I have ever met who I could hardly wait to hear the next word they spoke.  One of them is Dr. Heimlich.”
                                                            John McDougall, MD

Henry Heimlich, MD is a friend of the McDougalls, he has attended the McDougall Live-in Program, and has been a guest on the TV show, “McDougall, MD”

Dr. Heimlich has saved more lives than any person who has walked this earth.  In 1964, the Heimlich Chest Drain Valve was introduced. Dr. Heimlich is considered a hero in Vietnam and the U.S., where for the first time in history the lives of thousands of American and Vietnamese soldiers shot in the chest were saved by a device barely five inches long.  In 1974, Dr. Heimlich published findings on what was to become the Heimlich Maneuver. A week later, the first choking victim was saved by the method. Since its introduction, the Heimlich Maneuver has saved 50,000 people from choking or drowning in the United States alone.

Don’t miss this once-in-a-life time opportunity to meet a legend.  He will be giving two presentations during this weekend.  Other guest speakers will be announced soon.  Of course, all of the McDougall staff will be speaking during this weekend as well.

The cost of the weekend is $395, which includes all meals.  Rooms are available at $45 per night based on double occupancy.  Call (800) 941-7111; (707) 538-8609; or write Heather at heather@drmcdougall.com for more information and to sign up for this unforgettable weekend.
