David Donohue, MD, FACP, DipABLM

Dr. Donohue is a primary care internal medicine physician, who is board certified in lifestyle medicine. Dr. Donohue is cofounder and Chief Medical Officer of Progressive Health of Delaware,

His topic this year: "Heart Health"

The question to us all is: how well will we live our remaining years on this Earth?

Modern medicine is good at keeping people alive but not necessarily in a healthy and happy state.  

At this discussion, Dr. David Donohue will share how to keep the heart healthy.

His goal is to help you live your best and longest life, free of the many diseases that are shortening so many lives. You can't afford to miss this!
