Talking to Your Doctor

On Tuesday, May 19 we welcome Dr. Yusra Hussain, from Stanford Hospitals and Clinics, to discuss "Your Doctor and Your Brain." The talk starts at noon at the Downtown Library and is free and open to the public. (Details here.)
To prepare you for this program, we offer a few interesting articles and web sites.
  • Here are tips for talking to your doctor from the U.S. Dept. of Health and Human Services.
    Another list of tips from the American Heart Association.
    Did you know spinach is good brain food AND knocks out cancer?
    Looking for something to do this weekend? How about the Mind Body Wellness Program in Sunnyvale? It is free and happening Saturday, May 16. They ask that you register, so visit the web site first. (Note that the Library is not hosting this event, and this is not an endorsement.)

Have a wonderful and healthy weekend. We hope to see you next Tuesday!
