To all wives, moms, daughters, grandmother, sisters, and aunts get a check up for yourselves and family. Here’s some more information.Hey, it’s probably too expensive but how about some free colonoscopies ( You Tube video of procedure here ) for the guys. Ugh, Ugh, Ugh! from RIOC – 3/20:
There has been such an overwhelming response for appointments to receive free mammograms on Saturday March 22nd that I scheduled an additional date, May 17th- which is also Health and Fitness Day, for individuals who could not get an appointment this Saturday. The start of appointments for this weekend has also been changed from 9:00am to 8:00am. I’ll look into the colonoscopies.
Great work by RIOC in providing such a valuable public health service. I wonder if the Cornell Medical Center and Memorial Sloan Kettering hospitals, which have such a large residential presence on Roosevelt Island, are helping out?
