Joint Replacement Program Celebrates Second Anniversary

September 18, 2009 · No Comments

With NorthBay Healthcare's Joint Replacement Program getting ready for its second anniversary, and a new lecture series in the works, a celebration seemed in order.

Although plans are still coming together, the public is invited to attend the Joint Replacement Anniversary Celebration at 2 p.m. Oct. 14 at Green Valley Administration Center, 4500 Business Center Drive in Fairfield.

Several patients will share their success stories, and several doctors are being invited to speak, according to Cynthia Giaquinto, program manager for the Joint Replacement Program. In addition, a tai chi expert will walk guests through a demonstration.

Anyone considering joint replace-ment is invited to come and hear the stories and ask questions.

The monthly lectures are introductory in nature and intended for new or potential patients. The lectures—all at the Vaca-Valley Health Plaza—will begin at 6:30 p.m. Oct. 7, and 2 p.m. and 6:30 p.m. on Nov. 4.
