With Chicago’s festival season in full swing, proper summer healthcare remains a hot topic across the city.

To educate Chicago residents about staying healthy this summer, Advocate Illinois Masonic Medical Center recently hosted a breakfast discussion as part of its Wellness Wake-Up Series. Chuhak & Tecson, P.C. sponsored the June 28 event, with associate Kimberly Boike moderating the panel discussion.

Boike, an attorney in the firm’s healthcare group, is a member of Illinois Masonic’s charitable council. She moderated a panel composed of Patricia Lee, MD and chair of the hospital’s department of emergency medicine, and David Alameda, Jr., DPM. The panel covered a variety of healthcare topics, including preventing common summer sports injuries, staying hydrated, eating properly and making good shoe choices.

Twenty-five people attended the event, which was the last in a series of quarterly Wellness Wake-Ups hosted by Illinois Masonic. The hospital has not yet announced dates for its next Wellness Wake-Up series.
