The Minority Men’s Health Fair is the brainchild of Dr. Charles Modlin, who initially jumpstarted this wonderful gathering of men at The Cleveland Clinic. The long-standing health mixer has been an outstanding way to get men together to obtain great medical education about themselves and their bodies. It has also been known to be an outstanding place to run into old friends or to meet a few new ones.
Dr. Modlin joined the staff at MetroHealth in 2021, bringing along his wonderful life altering vehicle. Modlin’s name rings loud and clear as one of the best urologist in the city among patients and other physicians alike.
The Minority Men’s Health Fair will be held at all 3 MetroHealth locations. The hours of operation are from 5-8:30pm. To register call (216) 957-3862.
