Every attendee was acknowledged and thanked for their involvement in South Florida AMWA’s first annual health fair and other upcoming events.The event was held at the home of South Florida AMWA’s fundraising chair, Dr. Shahnaz Fatteh and it was sponsored by Citibank . There was also a stimulating guest lecture by Mr. Ronald Finkelstein on practice options.
