Pediatricians Speak at Hospital “Lunch and Learn”

 

August 17, 2007

 

Dr. Raluca Papadopol and Dr. Mariel Castillo-Guanzon, pediatricians at Multi-Specialty Medical, were the featured speakers for Claiborne County Hospital’s “Lunch and Learn” community outreach program on August 16, 2007. Dr. Papadopol’s presentation on “Migraines in Children”, and Dr. Castillo-Guanzon’s presentation, entitled “Obesity and Metabolic Syndrome in Children”, were very informative and inspired a great deal of discussion among those present for the session.

 Dr. Papadopol is a graduate of Gr. T. Popa Medical School in Romania, and completed an internship and residency at Wayne State University in Detroit, Michigan before moving to Claiborne County. Dr. Castillo-Guanzon graduated from medical school at the University of Santo Tomas in the Philippines, and received additional training from an internship and residency at the State University of New York and Downstate Medical Center in Brooklyn, New York. Both Dr. Papadopol and Dr. Guanzon are board certified by the American Board of Pediatrics.

 “Lunch and Learn” is a free community outreach program provided by Claiborne County Hospital on a bi-monthly basis for the benefit of area residents.
