ANNUAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS
TO BE HELD JANUARY 10, 2000
GENERAL INFORMATION
The enclosed Proxy is solicited by and on behalf of the Board of Directors of
INNOVATIVE MEDICAL SERVICES, a California corporation (the "Company"), for use
at the Company's Annual Meeting of Shareholders to be held at The Doubletree
Hotel San Diego, 7450 Hazard Center Drive, San Diego, California 92108 on the
10th day of January 2000 at 10:00 a.m. Pacific Standard Time, and at any
adjournment thereof. It is anticipated that this Proxy Statement and the
accompanying Proxy will be mailed to the Company's shareholders on or before
December 10, 1999.
Any person signing and returning the enclosed Proxy may revoke it at any time
before it is voted by giving written notice of such revocation to the Company,
or by voting in person at the Meeting. The expense of soliciting proxies,
including the cost of preparing, assembling and mailing this proxy material to
shareholders, will be borne by the Company. It is anticipated that solicitations
of proxies for the Meeting will be made only by use of the mails; however, the
Company may use the services of its Directors, Officers and employees to solicit
proxies personally or by telephone without additional salary or compensation to
them. Brokerage houses, custodians, nominees and fiduciaries will be requested
to forward the proxy soliciting materials to the beneficial owners of the
Company's shares held of record by such persons, and the Company will reimburse
such persons for their reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by them in
that connection.
All shares represented by valid proxies will be voted in accordance therewith at
the Meeting. Shares not voting as a result of a proxy marked to abstain will be
counted as part of total shares voting in order to determine whether or not a
quorum has been achieved at the Meeting. Shares registered in the name of a
broker-dealer or similar institution for beneficial owners to whom the
broker-dealer distributed notice of the Annual Meeting and proxy information and
which such beneficial owners have not returned proxies or otherwise instructed
the broker-dealer as to voting of their shares, will be counted as part of the
total shares voting in order to determine whether or not a quorum has been
achieved at the Meeting. Abstaining proxies and broker-dealer non-votes will not
be counted as part of the vote on any business at the Meeting on which the
shareholder has abstained.
The Company's Annual Report to Shareholders for the fiscal year ended July 31,
1999, has been previously mailed or is being mailed simultaneously to the
Company's shareholders, but does not constitute part of these proxy soliciting
materials.

<PAGE>
DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS STOCK OPTION PLAN: On April 17, 1996, the Company's Board
of Directors approved a Directors and Officers Stock Option Plan. The purpose of
the Plan is to advance the business and development of the Company and its
shareholders by affording to the Directors and Officers of the Company who are
ineligible to participate in the above Incentive Stock Option Plan, the
opportunity to acquire a propriety interest in the Company by the grant of
Options to acquire shares of the Company's common stock. The Plan is
administered by the entire Board of Directors. The Plan became effective on
April 17, 1996 by the Board of Directors, was not subject to Shareholder
approval and shall terminate on April 17, 2006. Subject to anti-dilution
provisions, the Plan may issue Options to acquire up to 1,000,000 shares to
Directors and Officers. The maximum number of shares subject to Options granted
to any one Director or Officer shall not exceed 200,000 shares in any 12 month
period. The exercise price for Options shall be set by the Board of Directors
but shall not be for less than eighty-five (85%) of the fair market value per
share on the date of grant. The period in which Options can be exercised shall
be set by the Board of Directors not to exceed five years from the date of
Grant. The Plan may be terminated, modified or amended by the Board of
Directors.
THE INNOVATIVE MEDICAL SERVICES 1998 DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS STOCK OPTION PLAN
On December 19, 1998, the Company's Shareholders Approved the Amended Innovative
Medical Services 1998 Officers and Directors Stock Option Plan. The purpose of
the Plan is to advance the business and development of the Company and its
shareholders by affording to the Directors and Officers of the Company the
opportunity to acquire a propriety interest in the Company by the grant of
Options to acquire shares of the Company's common stock.
The Options granted are not "Incentive Stock Options" within the meaning of
Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. The issuance of
such non-qualified options pursuant to this Plan is not expected to be a taxable
event for recipient until such time that the recipient elects to exercise the
option whereupon the recipient is expected to recognize income to the extent the
market price of the shares exceeds the exercise price of the option on the date
of exercise.
The Plan is administered by an Administrative Committee whom shall serve a one
year term. The Administrative Committee is composed of the Board's
Compensation/Administration Committee. Subject to anti-dilution provisions, the
Plan may issue Options to acquire up to 2,000,000 shares to Directors and
Officers. The exercise price for Options shall be set by the Administrative
Committee but shall not be for less than the fair market value of the shares on
the date the Option is granted. Fair market value shall mean the average of the
closing price for ten consecutive trading days at which the Stock is listed in
the NASDAQ quotation system ending on the day prior to the date an Option is
granted. The period in which Options can be exercised shall be set by the
Administrative Committee not to exceed five years from the date of Grant.
Options granted to new executive officers or directors shall vest one year from
date of appointment or election. Shares issuable under options granted to
continuing officers or directors are immediately exercisable and vest upon
exercise. The maximum number of shares subject to Options granted to any one
Director or Officer shall not exceed 200,000 shares in any 12-month period.
The Executive Officers and Directors of the Company are eligible to participate
in the Plan. The Administrative Committee has granted the present Executive
Officers and Directors an option to purchase 100,000 shares of common stock at
$1.00 per share. The Administrative Committee shall grant to individuals newly
appointed as Executive Officers or as Directors, an option to purchase 100,000
shares of common stock at fair market value. Upon each subsequent anniversary
thereof, each such Officer and Director will receive an option to purchase
50,000 shares of common stock at fair market value. The plan also gives the
Administrative Committee discretion to award additional options. The aggregate
number and kind of shares within the Plan and the rights under outstanding
Options granted hereunder, both as to the number of shares and Option price,
will be adjusted accordingly in the event of a reverse split in the outstanding
shares of the Common Stock of the Company.

<PAGE>
The Board may at any time terminate the plan. The approval of the majority of
shareholders is required to increase the total number of shares subject to the
plan, change the manner of determining the option price or to withdraw the
administration of the plan from the Administrative Committee.
