Community Invited to Experience DaVinci Surgical Robot at Fauquier Health Event

Fauquier Health is hosting a special Community Day on Saturday, September 21, offering a unique mix of educational and interactive experiences for the entire family. From 10 a.m. to 1:30 p.m., visitors will have the chance to explore healthcare engagingly, with highlights including the opportunity to test-drive the cutting-edge DaVinci surgical robot, a tool revolutionizing modern surgery.

The event will feature a wide range of activities to foster greater awareness of health and wellness. Community members can attend informative health chats covering important topics like women’s health, weight management, and heart-healthy cooking. These sessions are designed to help people take control of their health and learn practical tips to improve their well-being.

In addition, Fauquier Health is opening up parts of the hospital for tours.

For the younger visitors, these activities offer a fun and interactive way to learn more about medicine and healthcare workers’ important role in the community.
