Health Fest 2015 is co-sponsored by APAMSA (Asian American Medical Students Association) of the Medical College of Wisconsin.
Highlights of this year’s event include free screenings for diabetes and high blood pressure; breast exams; HIV and STD testing offered by the City of Milwaukee Health Department; vision tests; enrollment assistance for the Affordable Care Act; a karate demo; plus valuable give-aways and raffle items to support healthy living.
