Walk with a Doc with WABI Burien this Saturday, Jan. 11

The "Walk with a Doc" initiative in Burien, Washington, invites community members to join Dr. Dane Nimako on Saturday, January 11, at 11 a. m. This month, the focus is on glaucoma awareness, an eye condition that poses risks of permanent vision loss without early detection. Participants will meet at Burien Town Square Park, where Dr.

Nimako will deliver a brief talk before leading a community walk to Lake Burien Park. The event aims to make health education accessible while promoting physical activity, as January is designated as National Glaucoma Awareness Month. Walking is highlighted as a low-impact exercise with numerous health benefits, particularly for those with orthopedic or heart conditions. New participants are encouraged to register online to stay informed about future events. Dr.

Nimako operates the South Seattle chapter independently, demonstrating a commitment to extending health education outside clinic walls. This initiative is not affiliated with Walk/Bike Burien but aligns with their mission to promote walking in the community.
