Happy 100th birthday to our sweet patient Olga R! May you have many more!!
Dr. Wilkinson, Alya and Ilyas just finished their incredible journey to Mt. Kilimanjaro. Thank you everyone for your support, encouragement and prayers! Learn more about the cause they were supporting through the climb here: http://waystogive.texaschildrens.org/globalhealth/dr-wilkinson-mt-kilimanjaro.html?referrer=https://www.facebook.com/
Here's what Dr. Wilkinson had to say about the journey:
"Was an exhilarating and exhausting climb with some harrowing events at the top. More details later as we are off to bed after 7 nights in freezing tents and a couple nights with no real sleep and more physical exertion than I have had in years. Thanks everyone for the support of Area 25 operating theatre and public private partnership for the climb through Texas Children's Hospital Foundation.
The Climb!
Want to help mothers get the care they need and deserve? Support Dr. Sumera Hayat's kids Alya and Ilyas and her husband, Dr. Jeffrey Wilkinson with a donation as little as $1 as they climb Mt. Kilimanjaro to raise money and awareness for fistula and maternal health! The money raised will go towards completing ahealth center in Lilongwe, Malawi, that includes a maternity ward dedicated to Dr. Unaiza Hayat!
For the next week, Dr. Hayat and Wilkinson will match every dollar donated up to a total of $5,000. So $5,000 collected will turn into $10,000!

#Instahealth tip with avecinia and Dr. Lane: stay hydrated in the summer with green or white tea over ice instead of soda. Green and white tea are loaded with anti-oxidants and fat burning ingredients. Soda adds unwanted calories. #healthyliving, #clovis, #summer, #Summervacation, #heat, #goodlife, #health, #wellness, #avecinia, #clovis, #fresno, #doctor, #foodasmedicine, #integrativemedicine
Is your husband, wife, spouse, significant other keeping you up at night because they are snoring? Well there's hope for them (and for you)! Recently, Aamer found himself snoring more, waking up with headaches, and not feeling fully rested. So he did a take home sleep study (available at avecinia) and found he had mild sleep apnea (paused breathing at night, which keeps your body from getting enough oxygen thus leading to headaches, bad sleep, and potentially other diseases such as diabetes, acid reflux, hypertension, etc). Aamer visited Dr. Kary Karahadian at Fresno Snoring and Sleep Therapy and was fitted with a oral sleep therapy device. Since then he doesn't have morning headaches, feels more rested and better over all. Watch the video to see Dr. Karahadian explain sleep apnea and what treatment options may be best for you. Call avecinia at 559-324-9900 to make an appointment to get tested and discuss your best options for a better nights sleep and a healthier you!
Happy Birthday Lee! Thanks for being a wonderful part of the avecinia wellness center family!
