The evening will begin with a dinner followed by presentations, after which guests will have the opportunity to receive free cholesterol and blood sugar checks.
The expert panel will include medical leaders from Mahaska Health, Dr. Timothy Breon, Chief Medical Officer and General Surgeon, Dr. Jesse Van Maanen, Board Certified General Surgeon, Dr. Daniel Kollmorgen, Oncology Medical Director and Vice President of Medical Affairs, Dr. Taylar Swartz Summers, OB, Birthing Center & GYN Co-Medical Director, Dr. John Pargulski, Cardiology Medical Director, Dr. Hannah Thompson, OB & Family Medicine Physician, and, from Radiologic Medical Services in Iowa City, Dr. Shane Kraske, Radiologist.
“Preventative healthcare is crucial because it helps detect and address potential issues before they become serious. By focusing on regular check-ups, screenings, vaccinations and lifestyle choices, it reduces risk. We are so grateful for the opportunity to share information and resources with our community,” said Dr. Timonthy Breon, Mahaska Health Chief Medical Officer. “Women’s Health Night is a great place to learn – and to connect.”
