September is the month with the highest level of childhood Asthma attacks. Therefore we will get a head start on August 5th, with learning the facts about childhood Asthma. Here are just a few statistics. In the United States, over 7,000,000 children are suffering with Asthma. This represents nearly 10 % of the childhood population.  In fact, Asthma is the third ranking cause of hospitalization of children under 15 years old, and results in over 10,000,000 school days missed overall annually.  Dr. Rubin is committed to bringing an understanding to those in attendance about the disease known as Asthma, its causes, prevention, and treatment.  Bring all your questions for this interactive program.

The program is free to the community, however seating is limited and reservations are required. For information and reservations, call 631.367.4371.
