Next ‘Dr. Right’ event will be May 9

The next installment of Northwest Community Healthcare’s “Finding Dr. Right” program is next scheduled for 6-8 p.m. Wednesday, May 9, in Arlington Heights, inviting residents to locate a new pediatrician for their children, or an obstetrician/gynecologist for themselves. It’s free, and even a little fun.

“Finding Dr. Right” operates under the speed dating concept, in that prospective patients will talk with each physician for five minutes and then rotate to the next doctor at the sound of a bell. This event is held at the NCH Wellness Center, 900 W. Central Road on the Arlington Heights campus of Northwest Community Hospital.

“This gives people a chance to sit down with a number of great male and female doctors to get a good feel for

their personalities and expertise without the hassle of setting up several appointments,” said Jackie Speckin, director of

Strategic Marketing for NCH.

Attendees should not seek medical advice during these brief sessions.

“We keep things moving in a fun way because we know people have limited time,” Speckin said. “It’s a fast way to get your important questions answered while learning about a physician’s approach to health care.”

Physician referral specialists will be on hand to help coordinate next steps when patients find a doctor who meets their medical needs.

Seats are limited at this free event, so register with HealthConnection at (847) 618.4968 or online at www.nch.org.
