Sister to Sister Founder Irene Pollin was a panelist at the Larry King and Friends: The State of Heart Care in America Panel Discussion on June 7 at the George Washington University Hospital. The panel featured industry experts in the fields of cardiac care, medicine, government, and health insurance.

The panel discussion, which was hosted by Larry King, focused on current issues in cardiac healthcare, including problems faced by the uninsured and how it relates to cardiac prevention, health, and treatment.

Sister to Sister would like to thank our hospital partners, Washington Adventist Hospital and Shady Grove Adventist Hospital, for providing the medical equipment and volunteers.

Lifetime TV covered the free heart health screenings that Sister to Sister offered to the public as part of the event. See our screenings in action on the Lifetime Health Corner website.
