Shared Medical Appointments

The second in a series of groundbreaking VIM Berkshires Shared Medical Appointments kicked off on October 14 at Berkshire South Community Center. A group of Spanish speaking women patients will meet twice a month for the next six months and receive in-depth education about healthy eating, stress reduction and weight management. Integrative Medicine specialist Susan Lord, MD and VIM health coach and yoga teacher Nancy Fernandez Mills will facilitate, supported by VIM clinical staff. The program is made possible by a grant from the Massachusetts Medical Society. To read about the first SMA session, on high blood pressure, click here.
