Take a Loved One to the Doctor Day
PhillyHealthInfo.org and The College of Physicians of Philadelphia would like to thank everyone involved for making Take a Love One to the Doctor Day 2009 a success! For photos from the April 7th kick off event, see the live stream below:

TALO provided guests a wide selection of resources and services; from the early morning presentations and exercise classes to the health screenings and health information booths.
