"Oftentimes, men are so busy with their daily lives that they neglect their health. The Men's Health Fair is a wonderful time for people to encourage the men in their lives to take a time out for health. Atrium Health Navicent encourages men to pursue personal wellness before a serious illness occurs," said Charles Krauss, Community Health Educator for Atrium Health Navicent.
