Dr. Ram will be joining us for Wellness Wednesday to discuss updates on screening mammography guidelines. We know that women over 40 years of age qualify for breast cancer screening however what about ultrasound, MRI and genetic testing. What if you have a family history of breast cancer??? The guidelines have been updated, and Dr. Ram will be joining to help us understand the latest evidence-based practice regarding mammography and screening guidelines.

In Lifestyle Medicine, we teach patients how to incorporate more plants into their diet. Did you know adding more plants to your diet on a regular basis can help with weight loss, GI issues, improved immunity, enhance sleep and even aid in our mental health. All from plants! Variety is key and new research shows we should be aiming for a variety of 30 different plants per week. We encourage you to try a new recipe and/or put plant-based spin on oldie but goodie favorite recipe.
