Using a combination of interactive group sessions, hands-on teaching programs like "Baby Think It Over", and comprehensive medical care, Dr. Chatman and her staff touched the lives of over 10,000 students, reduced absenteeism and emergency room visits and enhanced the overall wellness of the students that participated in their programs.
