Heart disease is the leading cause of death of women in the
United States. To help raise awareness, Covenant Medical
Group hosted a free health fair, focused on women's heart
health and wellness. The event was held on Saturday, May
17 at the Knipling Education and Conference Center.
At the event, a panel discussion with Covenant Health
experts covered topics to better understand women's
heart health at any age. Those topics included wellness,
prevention, and health maintenance—such as screenings,
lab tests, annual exams, overall heart health, diabetes
management, nutrition, and hormone replacement
therapy during perimenopause and menopause.
We would like to extend our gratitude to these experts who
generously shared their expertise with the fair's attendees:
• Dr. Marina Iskandir, Interventional Cardiology
• Dr. Haley Hughston, Cardiology
• Dr. Bennett Henderson, Obstetrics and Gynecology
• Dr. Ramya Undamatla, Endocrinology
• Dr. Holly Lewis, Family Medicine
In addition to our speakers, we would like to thank all the
caregivers and community partners who helped make this
event a successful day full of learning, connecting, and
prioritizing heart health.
