In an effort to help empower women to make health a priority, the Wayne State University Physician Group will host the second annual Ladies Night Out Health Crawl on May 14 from 6 to 8 p.m. at the Somerset Inn, located at 2601 W. Big Beaver in Troy.
Registered guests may select up to three of eight 30-minute informational lectures presented by doctors of the Wayne State University Physician Group, in partnership with the Wayne State University School of Medicine.
FREE Hors d'oeuvres and refreshments will be served at 6 p.m., with lectures starting promptly at 6:30 p.m. Session topics will span a variety of women’s health issues, including cardiology, dermatology, gynecology, ophthalmology, family medicine, and facial plastic and reconstructive surgery.
“This event gives women access to the latest information and the best health experts while allowing guests to choose which topics appeal to them,” said Tochi Okwuosa, D.O., a cardiologist specializing in women’s heart health with the Wayne State University Physician Group. “The goal is to inform women about health concerns and risk factors, with a focus on education and prevention – and of course, to have fun.”
Emmy Award-winning veteran Detroit radio personality Cynthia Canty will serve as the celebrity guest emcee for the evening.
The Ladies Night Out Health Crawl will coincide with National Women’s Health Week May 12-18, a weeklong health observance coordinated by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services in an effort to promote the importance of women's health.
Attendees can enter to win an Amazon Kindle Fire, as well as other prizes for guests who check-in to the event on Facebook or Foursquare.
