Dinner with the Doc focuses on diabetes complications

NEW BRITAIN - A special Dinner with the Doc focusing on the complications of diabetes will be held Tuesday, April 22, from 5 to 7 p.m., at Arbor Rose at Jerome Home. The guest speaker will be Dr. Anthony Babigian, who is board certified by the American Board of Podiatric Orthopedics and Primary Podiatric Medicine as well as the American Board of Podiatric Surgery, and is a Fellow of the American College of Foot and Ankle Surgeons.

Individuals with diabetes have twice the hospital admissions than those without it, and they are often dealing with the difficult side effects including foot ulcers, wounds on lower legs/feet and other issues. This program addresses the prevention and management of such side effects.

Arbor Rose at Jerome Home is located at 975 Corbin Ave., New Britain. Please RSVP to Denise Lebrocquy at (860) 229-3707.
