April 26, 2024 (La Mesa) – In alignment with its commitment to "inspire communities through movement and conversation," Sharp Grossmont Hospital launched its new community engagement initiative, Walk With a Doc, Thursday. This innovative nationwide program is being led locally by Sharp-affiliated physicians Dr. Kaveh Bagheri and Dr. Ara Klijian.
 
Scheduled for the fourth Thursday of each month, Walk With a Doc aims to foster a stronger connection between the community and health care professionals. Each session begins with a brief educational talk focusing on vital health topics such as diet, lung and heart health, and the benefits of regular physical activity. Participants then walk with doctors and other hospital staff at Briercrest Park in La Mesa to continue the conversation.
