“You Can Prevent a Stoke:  Wellness at home, virtual medicine, and aging – useful guidance for everyone.”

 

Kristin Thomas, MD and Joshua Yamamoto, MD, are the cofounders of the Foxhall Foundation, a 501c3 non-profit based in Northwest DC dedicated to “Helping Everyone Age Well.”  The Foundation recently published a book, “You Can Prevent a Stroke,” which is a very practical guide for anyone over the age of 50 on how to navigate the natural aging process and how to get the most out of what modern health care has to offer.   The Foundation will soon open a brand new Wellness Center in Friendship Heights which hopes to offer an array of classes on wellness, fitness and nutrition for all ages, especially for seniors.  Alongside the Wellness Center, the Foundation has already begun a “Wellness at  Home” project designed to help people access wellness counselors remotely.  Drs Thomas and Yamamoto plan to spend a few minutes reviewing the book (which is available from Amazon and elsewhere), as well as discuss ways to work on health and wellness from home.
