Fayetteville, Ga. (August 29, 2023) – Piedmont Fayette Hospital is pleased to announce that urologist Brittani Barrett-Harlow, M.D. will lead Walk with a Doc on Saturday, Sept. 9. Participants will have the opportunity to get some fresh air and exercise while Dr. Barrett-Harlow will discuss the risks and treatment for prostate cancer, common urologic conditions, and the latest technological advances that improve outcomes for certain prostate issues.

“In the United States, one in eight men will be diagnosed with prostate cancer in his lifetime,” said Paige Muh, Director of Community Relations for Piedmont Fayette. “Unfortunately, prostate cancer is often asymptomatic, which means that men often don’t show signs or symptoms until the cancer has progressed to advanced stages. This walk promises to be very informative and may help save someone’s life.”

Walk with a Doc takes place on the second Saturday of every month from May through October. The walks start promptly at 8:30 a.m. at the Peachtree City Market at Aberdeen Village and go to Battery Way Boat Dock and back (approximately 40 minutes). Walk participants are encouraged to shop with Peachtree City Market vendors after the walk.

Walk with a Doc is free, but reservations are required. Email PFHRSVP@piedmont.org to save your spot.
