Join us for the 8th Annual "What's Up, Doc?"
Children’s Memorial Hospital is hosting the 8th Annual What’s Up Doc? on Thursday, May 21, 2009 at the Saddle & Cycle Club in Chicago from 6 – 9 p.m.
What’s Up, Doc? will provide a unique opportunity to receive inside access to discuss current health issues with top experts from Children’s Memorial. Guests will have dinner with two physicians of their choice to learn about the latest developments in that physician’s specialty, and to talk about issues of relevance and concern. Guests can also educate themselves on the quality and wide scope of services Children’s Memorial has to offer to the families in the Chicagoland area.
We anticipate this event will sell out. Reservations will be accepted in the order they are received. Please RSVP by Wednesday, May 13, 2009.
