Dr. Allen Lycka Motivational Speaker from Edmonton, AB

Dr. Allen Lycka At the top of my career, I was told I had six months to live. I was a world-leading cosmetic dermatologist in 2003 when I was crushed by this misdiagnosis. I defied the odds and learned to thrive. When a person survives death, they change. They look at life differently and seek out answers. And because of my struggle, I am able to share these answers with you in my new book, “The Secrets of Living A Fantastic Life… Discover The 13 Golden Pearls Within”. The book is co-written with Woman of Distinction Winner Harriet Tinka, who had a similar life experience, surviving death after being kidnapped, stabbed, and left for dead. The “Golden Pearls” are the commonality we discovered. Now I've dedicated my life to be an acclaimed author, motivational speaker extraordinaire and life-changing coach. Biography Dr. Allen Lycka has been acknowledged as one of the leading cosmetic dermatologists in the world for three decades. A pioneer in cosmetic surgery, he helped to develop laser assisted tumescent liposuction - an advanced body sculpture technique, and Moh's Micrographic Surgery, an advanced means of removing skin cancer with 99% success. He has lived and practiced in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada since 1989. He's written 17 books, 30+ academic papers and hosted the number one internet radio show in the world – Inside Cosmetic Surgery Today. He is a co-founder of Doctors for the Practice of Safe and Ethical Aesthetic Medicine and founder of The Canadian Skin Cancer Association.

In 2003, Dr. Lycka's life changed drastically when he suddenly developed a right foot drop and then misdiagnosed as ALS (Lou Gherigs' disease). Still, he maintained his status as a leading cosmetic doctor for 30 years. Because of what he learned, he is co-authoring the book The Secrets of Living A Fantastic Life with Harriet Tinka, a former fashion model and Woman of Distinction. He is also currently co-authoring two more books: one with Corie Poirier entitled, “bLU Talks Presents: Business, Life and the Universe” and one with Jack Canfield entitled, “The Pillars of Success.” Currently acknowledged as a leading expert in Living A Fantastic Life and Turning Points, he is a transformational speaker, thought leader, coach, and mentor.
