The Crystal Run physicians that will lead this walk will be Dr. Eric Barbanel and Dr. Florence Lazaroff.

Walk with a Doc is a national non-profit organization and program that encourages heart health in local communities by partnering with healthcare organizations like Crystal Run Healthcare to organize walks with physicians and healthcare professionals. Walkers enjoy a refreshing and rejuvenating walk with Crystal Run physicians who provide support to the walkers and answer questions along the way. Crystal Run held its first Walk with a Doc last spring and the program has continued to grow ever since. Local walkers and community members enjoy the organized walks each month at various parks in the Hudson Valley.

Walking is a simple and convenient way to get healthy and now the community can enjoy the beautiful landscapes and grounds of Bethel Woods while they do so,” said Jonathan Nasser, MD, and Walk with a Doc Team Leader for Crystal Run Healthcare.
