"I am sorry to say, but this was one of the worst CME hours that I have taken. I use laser on a regular basis for the past 20 years; I only heard from the speaker that light therapy treats everything, and verything can be treated by lasers and photo modulation, And a lot about red and blue light but no specific treatment plans, differences between different lasers, and no explanation as to which lasers work best for specific conditions. Even though these topics were touched upon but never covered"
