At Dominican Medical Foundation, Care Comes First!
 |
As women, we often put the needs of others ahead of our own. But when it comes to our health, it's essential that we put ourselves first. That's why Dominican Medical Foundation hosted our inaugural health and lifestyle expo just for women on Thursday, April 30, 2009 - Care Comes First - offering:
- Informative exhibits on health, fitness and style at every age
- Insight with a variety of health screenings
- Tempting hors d'oeuvres, refreshing beverages and gourmet coffees
- Massages, skincare and beauty product demonstrations
- Breakout sessions on essential health topics from Dominican Medical Foundation doctors
- Insight from Dominican Hospital President, Nanette Mickiewicz, MD, whose own personal life is a balancing act of work, family and health
