This year’s Health Fair welcomes back popular screeners and exhibitors.

Immunizations for flu and pneumonia, including the super Prevnar 13® pneumonia protection

Shingles vaccine will require advance sign-up. Information will be available before the fair.

HealthWaves will conduct full diagnostic lab tests at a reasonable rate.

University of Arizona Pharmaceutical students will provide free screenings for cholesterol, diabetes and other issues. Many fair attendees have discovered a need for additional medical treatment through these screenings.
