Let's face it – going to see your doctor is not exactly one of your top 10 favorite things to do. It takes up valuable time, and can interfere with the never-ending list of chores and activities that make up our lives, making it easy to find reasons to put it off for another day. But that decision could cost you and your family more than you may realize. When it comes to screenings and annual exams, taking action sooner rather than later is key. In the June online seminar, Dr. Winnie King showed you how to be the best Chief Health Officer for your family. In this seminar, she will give you the latest news about which screening exams can save lives. Hopefully, you will walk away with a whole new outlook on going to the doctor.
