Healthy Heart Fair

The Fifteenth Annual Healthy Heart Fair will be from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. Saturday at the Oklahoma City Community College Union Building, 7777 South May Avenue.

People from across the state are invited to have their cardiovascular health evaluated via a free health screening (fasting is not required for the screening) including cholesterol, blood pressure, glucose and body fat analysis. Attendees can also learn the signs and symptoms of an ailing heart while trained staff will be on-hand to give CPR classes.

An “Ask the Cardiologist” booth will be set up for those that need answers to their heart health questions.

Three one-hour presentations will also be given:

9:30 a.m.
Kris Mullins, M.D.
Heart Checkup: The Many Cardiac Tests Available at Integris Heart Hospital

10:30 a.m.
Terrie Gibson, M.D.
Herbal Medicines: Helpful or Harmful?

11:30 a.m.
Terrie Gibson, M.D.
Health Screenings: Which Ones to Get, Which Ones to Skip

The Healthy Heart Fair is sponsored by Integris Heart Hospital at Baptist Medical Center.
