Spine, Joint, and Stroke Center Open House at PeaceHealth Southwest Medical Center - 01/19/18

Experts from multiple medical specialties will be available to meet the public on Jan. 27th during PeaceHealth Southwest Medical Center's Spine Center, Joint Journey, and Stroke Center Showcase. There is no admission charge to attend this special health information and education event.

"We want our community to have the opportunity to see our amazing facility and meet the exceptional people who provide care for patients dealing with spine, joint issues, or stroke issues" said Kristy Morgan, Coordinator of PeaceHealth Southwest's spine center.

Anyone wanting to attend should come to the lobby of PeaceHealth Southwest Medical Center's Firstenburg Tower between 1 p.m. and 4 p.m., where they will be greeted and directed to the different Showcase locations. Featured locations will include the Thomas and Sandra Young Neuroscience Center, and the Joint Center's post-operative recovery area.

"The Showcase will feature three different specialties," said Morgan. "A person with a sore back or neck may only be interested in seeing our Spine Center, meeting our spine experts, and touring our private patient rooms, whereas a person with sore knees may be more interested in learning more about our Joint Replacement program. We want everyone who visits to get exactly the information they need to help them."
