"DOCTORS WITH A HEART" CELEBRATION IN FEBRUARY
Dr. Venus Ann Maher, a chiropractic physician, whose clinic is located at 525 E. Cotati Ave. Suite 115 will be providing service free of charge in February for Doctors With A Heart Day. Traditionally this occurs on one day only, which for existing patients will be February 15th. However due to a need that cannot be met in one day, new patients will receive a free history, examination and first treatment when they schedule any time in the month of February.
Dr. Maher has been providing service to Sonoma County for 24 years. While all adjustments are free on that day, optional donations will be accepted for COTS - Committee on the Shelterless. Doctors With a Heart Day is a day of free health care to members of the community. Services are by appointment only. An optional donation for the local charity, COTS is requested. COTS provides homeless, homelessness prevention and life transforming services to Sonoma County's neediest residents.
Appointments for Doctors With A Heart in February may be made by calling (707) 792-0202. You can also visit Maher Chiropractic at www.maherchiro.com.
