The day begins with a free health screening for cholesterol, blood sugar, bone density, a fitness assessment and more. Fasting after midnight is required for the screenings; snacks will be provided for those fasting. The free free screenings will be available until 11:30 a.m.
Regina Worrell, a local physical therapist with Atmore Community Hospital along with her helpers, will be providing fitness assessment. Baptist Healthcare and the Escambia County Health Department will be providing the testing and screening.
Robbie Drummond, RPH, will provide s “A Light Hearted Look at Medicine” during a free lunch.
The afternoon sessions will be open to both men and women. Dr. Gaylon McCollough, founder of the McCollough Institute for Appearance and Health in Gulf Shores and one of American’s top Plastic Surgeons, will be the guest speaker.
McCollough was also an All-American Center for the 1964 University of Alabama championship team and was the personal physician for Coach Paul “Bear” Bryant.
