Evaluations/Comments from Previous Presentations:
One of the better teleseminars I've attended; professional, jam
packed with relevant information; knowledgeable presenters, topic well
organized, case studies helpful; case studies were interesting- made me
think of my own clinical examples; good explanation of pharmacokinetics,
used actual drug names instead of drug classes; very informative - Pronsky
& Elbe touched bases on a lot of concerns I have to deal with on a
daily basis.

Very informative and insightful; very knowledgeable speakers, good

CRN Network Spring
Meeting, Plymouth Meeting, PA March 2009
Really enjoyed Managing Drug Interactions in Cardiac Disease.
Handouts good.
North Carolina Dietetic Assn meeting, April 2008
If you are looking for a seminar that provides
plenty of interesting information in a well planned and comfortable
format, you will not want to miss this presentation.
Pronsky
and Elbe possess an amazing knowledge base on the subject of
food/herb/medication interactions. Pronsky, is a Registered Dietitian, and
Elbe is a Hospital Pharmacy Pharmacist, as well as a pharmacy instructor.
Together they offer complementary education regarding medication
absorption and dietary interaction with medications.
Using several case studies, the presenters quickly involve the audience in
discussion and problem solving. Dietitians are reminded of the importance
of considering all medication interactions in the Nutrition Assessment
process.
The presenters, each with clinical caseloads, provide applicable
illustrations from cases in their own practices. They bring their subject
matter to life.
We are all aware of difficulty keeping up with the vast number and type of
medications on the market.
This seminar is a great way to build on your present knowledge base.

Virginia Dietetic Assn Meeting, April 2006
The Massachusetts CDHCF meeting held October 2005
Attendees loved the program. Evaluation forms were filled with comments
like concise, made subject exciting, very practical, case studies worked
well to reinforce their points, timely explanation of current information
on diabetes subject, speakers were very knowledgeable and worked well
together, EXCELLENT PROGRAM.
The Indiana Consultant Dietitians held
our fall meeting in early November 2005. Our program included a four hour
presentation by Zaneta Pronsky and Sr. Jeanne Crowe. Two hours were spent
on Psychotropic Drugs: Nutritional and Weight Managment Considerations and
an additional hour and a half on Drug Therapy of Alzheimer's Dementia.
Due to their superb reputation as speakers, our
attendance was at least 1/3 higher than usual which increased our profits
by more than 33%.
Evaluations were outstanding- 91% of responses on evaluations were
excellent or above average. Evaluation comments included:
They made the information very practical; Let's have them again on
other drug nutrient interactions; Sister Jeanne was a very good
instructor and easy to listen to; Excellent speakers, great
presentations; They gave me information that I can take back and
use; They took a complex subject and made it fun.
Further more, their honoraria and expenses are very reasonable.
They have a variety of presentation topics on pharmacology, diabetes, and
food and drug interactions. We plan to have them again in the
future. I'm sure Zaneta won't mind if I share her email address
with other program planners out there, check out her web site for more
information. ZPronFMI@verizon.net

I
would like to thank you both once again for your wonderful presentation to
our group Jan. 12th.
All
the evaluation forms echoed what a great day it was.
You were both witty, and heldeveryones interest through out the
day. Especially noted was how everyone found the case studies to be a plus
in geling all the information you presented.

"The Food-Drug Interactions presentation by
Zaneta Pronsky, MS, RD, FADA and Dr. Jeanne Crowe was super! Not only did it
refresh my awareness of what I know in the area, but reminded me that
the drug therapies and knowledge change all of the time, and that we all
need to keep up. I heard my students and colleagues who also
attended state they "it was the best part" of the meeting for them. It helps to gain more skill in managing patients
with potential interactions."
