Harbin Health

The holidays are a special time of year filled with fun traditions, cozy sweaters, yummy food, and spending precious time with loved ones. This time of year also brings more illnesses and germs, and as the number of confirmed COVID-19 cases continues to rise, planning a safe holiday season has become increasingly more difficult.

At Harbin Clinic, the safety of our patients and community remains our top priority. We are continuously monitoring the development of the coronavirus in partnership with the U.S. Centers for Disease Control (CDC) and Georgia Department of Public Health.

Just like nothing in life ever stays the same, this holds true for self-care, too. As you age and approach different life stages, your needs and self-care activities will change also. Be ready for it, and remind yourself that you’re worth the effort!

Today, the doctors at Cardiology Calhoun care for patients in the clinic Monday through Friday, providing state-of-the-art medicine and treatment plans tailored for each patient’s needs.

It’s time to reserve your spot and join more than 1,500 glowing, green-garbed, bubble-blasting, foam-frolicking runners and walkers along the trails and streets of Downtown Rome for the 2019 edition of the Harbin Clinic Leprechaun-a-thon on Saturday, March 16.

Throughout October, the world will be infused with pink as nationwide Breast Cancer Awareness efforts increase knowledge about the disease that affects more than 200,000 women in the United States each year. Early detection of breast cancer is paramount to successful treatment and recovery, and one of the best ways to catch the disease in its earliest stages is by getting a mammogram - a generally painless test that usually takes less than 20 minutes.

Get ready to kick off your Thanksgiving week festivities with the Harbin Clinic Turkey Trot 5K and Health Wobble benefitting the United Way of Bartow County on Saturday, Nov. 17. The long-running event adds Harbin Clinic as the title sponsor this year but keeps the same great course and the fun, frivolity and fitness local athletes have come to expect.

On Wednesday June 20, Harbin Clinic partnered with the Rome Women’s Information Network to present Kick Pain in the Kitchen as Well as the Medicine Cabinet, an arthritis workshop aimed at teaching women and men how to fight symptoms of the disease with diet and exercise.

With warmer weather comes more time in the great outdoors, lounging by the pool, visiting the beach and incidentally soaking up some rays. It’s great to have fun outdoors, but Harbin Clinic Dermatology wants everyone to make sure to be proactive in protecting themselves from the sun.

Flu season has arrived, and Harbin Clinic wants to remind everyone of a key cog in your flu defense plan - hand washing. It kills germs and bacteria and helps guard against sickness, including the flu.
