Featured Expo Screenings
Ask a Doctor Presented by Partners HealthCare
Location: Hall B Booth 764
Partners HealthCare physicians will be available throughout the weekend to answer your questions regarding a number of health topics including: pain management, heart health, primary care and family health, cosmetic surgery, mental health, foot care, skin care, imaging techniques, and cancer therapies.
"Ask a Doctor" is intended to serve as a limited consultation to individuals who meet with an "Ask a Doctor" physician. During the "Ask a Doctor" consultation, the physician will communicate general medical information to individuals who present health-related questions. Consultations with "Ask a Doctor" physicians do not create a doctor-patient relationship and should not replace the medical advice of a treating physician.
Brigham and Women's Hospital: Cardiovascular Screening
Location: Saturday All Day, Sunday 10AM-3PM Hall B Booth 903
The Brigham and Women's Hospital Cardiovascular Wellness Service is offering free cardiovascular screenings both Saturday and Sunday. Visit our exhibit to learn more about your risk for heart and vascular diseases through screenings that will give you important numbers for blood pressure, body mass index (BMI), glucose, and cholesterol - as well as the opportunity to review your numbers with one of our nurses.
Brigham and Women's Hospital: Kidney Screening
Location: Saturday and Sunday 10AM-3PM Hall B Booth 903
Chronic kidney disease is a serious health problem in the United States, affecting 14 percent of the adult population. A small percentage of men and women are not even aware that their kidneys have reached the late stages of kidney failure. To raise awareness of kidney diseases, a free kidney health screening will be available at the BWH exhibit. This screening will include a blood pressure check, diabetes evaluation, and an urinalysis. Physicians will be on site for consultation with the screening results.
