Riverside Free Panel Discussion and Resource Expo focused on heart disease and stroke

ONANCOCK, Virginia – Heart disease is the leading cause of death in the U.S. as well as Virginia, and stroke is the fifth leading cause of death in Virginia, both according to the Virginia Department of Health. Risk of tragic outcomes can be reduced with a thoughtful approach to lifestyle changes and proactive treatment.
