Speaking at this month’s Healthy Woman seminar is Laredo’s newest physician, Edgar Alberto Trevino, M.D.  Dr. Trevino is from Laredo and returning to his hometown to practice family medicine.  He will speak to the group about “Women’s Health and Annual Exams Important for Women.” 

Five years ago, Laredo Medical Center launched its Healthy Woman program in an effort to help women take care of their health.  Women are primarily responsible for taking care of health matters in the home—whether it be for the children or the spouse—but most times ignore their own health because they’re usually too busy caring for everyone else.  At Laredo Medical Center, women’s health is valued and a priority. 
Women who join the Healthy Woman Program say they find comfort in numbers with enrollment having grown over the last five years to over 1,000 members.  Healthy Woman offers monthly events featuring presenters who discuss health, financial and spiritual topics. 

Membership in the program is free for women between the ages of 21 and 54.  To RSVP or membership information, call (956) 796-3222.
