Cleveland Clinic Wellness and Preventive Medicine Annual Conference 2026

1. Overview
The Cleveland Clinic Wellness and Preventive Medicine Annual Conference 2026 offers an integrative approach to patient care, focusing on lifestyle, functional, and culinary medicine. The program explores mind-body connections, hormonal health across genders, cognitive preservation, and practical dietary interventions to empower providers in optimizing holistic patient wellness.
Course Date: April 24, 2026
Why Attend?
Most of the chronic conditions in the United States are lifestyle driven, yet most clinicians received little formal education in lifestyle intervention during training. Many patients seek complementary medical interventions, which are also rarely discussed in conventional medicine training.
This conference aims to provide attendees with a framework to assess and support common chronic conditions using lifestyle, integrative and functional medicine approaches. Specific, evidence-based tools in each of these areas will be shared with attendees, with the goal to empower attendees to provide lifestyle intervention counseling to patients. Evidence-based discussion of complementary medicine will also help attendees understand the indication and limitation of these modalities for patient care. Specific conditions in brain health, aging, mental health, hormone balance, and culinary medicine will be discussed.
2. Learning Objectives
