Take A Loved One to the Doctor Day®   

Radio One, Inc. WZAK 93.1 , Minority Health Roundtable and OPEN M worked together on Take A Loved One to the
Doctor Day ®.  OPEN M hosted this Health Care event featuring FREE health screenings for the second year on Tuesday,
April 6th from 10:00am until 5:00pm at OPEN M.

"In 2002, Tom Joyner launched Take A
Loved One to the Doctor Day ® to raise
health awareness in the African American
community.  This national on-air campaign
urges listeners to better educate them-
selves, loved ones, family members,
and friends to take an important stand for
their health by communicating the
importance of regular visits to the doctor for general health upkeep." from millmag.org
