Walk with a Doc (WWAD) is coming to the RA Centre! Join this free community walking program starting on Sunday, July 12! Walk with a Doc is a nonprofit organization started in 2005 by Dr. David Sabgir, a cardiologist in Columbus Ohio. Dr. Sabgir invited members of his community to walk with him regularly – addressing their inquiries about a range of health topics. This FREE program now extends around the globe – with hundreds of communities enjoying the countless benefits of walking with their healthcare providers on an ongoing basis. At Walk with a Doc, a healthcare professional typically starts the event with a brief discussion on a topic of their choice. The rest of their time is spent walking and talking with participants in a fun, relaxed setting. At each event, you’ll have the opportunity to walk at a pace and distance with which you are comfortable. We’re very excited to have Dr. Kwadwo Kyeremanteng leading our first walk on July 12! Affectionately known as Dr. K, he cares for extremely ill patients in the Ottawa Hospital’s ICU. But his mission extends far beyond treating illness. Dr. K is dedicated to transforming healthcare so fewer patients require intensive care. Through passionate advocacy and innovation, Dr. K is reshaping health and wellness for future generations. Featured locally and nationally on the news, as well as Newsweek and Vogue, Dr. K is nationally recognized for innovative solutions promoting health prevention and wellness. He is the founder of Gyata Nutrition and co-founder of Osler AI and Lionheart Innovation, which aim to create impactful, efficient healthcare strategies. He is also the author of Unapologetic Leadership, which inspires bold, values-driven leadership. We invite you to take this incredible opportunity to walk, learn more about relevant health topics, and have your questions answered through organic discussion with a medical professional from our community. Bring a friend or meet a new friend at the walks! RSVP today at walkwithadoc.org/join-a-walk/locations/ottawa-ontario/ Schedule
