Dunwoody sets “Walk with a Doc”

The City of Dunwoody and program partner Emory Saint Joseph’s Hospital are providing community members with a chance to take active steps toward better health through the new Dunwoody Walk with a Doc program.

The free Walk with a Doc monthly exercise and education initiative takes place the second Saturday of each month, 9 to 10 a.m., at Brook Run Park (4770 N. Peachtree Road, Dunwoody) on the front field, opposite the playground.

The program is focused on getting participants active in a Dunwoody park while conferring with a healthcare professional host who can provide support to walkers and answer questions during the walk. Healthy snacks, coffee and blood pressure checks are also a standard part of Dunwoody’s Walk with a Doc walking program. Pre-registration is not required.
