Recording of the August 9, 2020, VIRTUAL Walk with a Doc

Nevada AAP WWAD Kids Time

For the August 2020 walk, we welcomed Dr. Pam Greenspon, President of the Nevada AAP and a pediatrician at Desert Valley Pediatrics in Las Vegas, who presented a brief, kid-friendly talk about the role of breastfeeding in obesity prevention and then took questions live.

For over 4 years, the Nevada Chapter of the American Academy of Pediatrics (Nevada AAP) has led in-person Walk with a Doc events to encourage families to learn about pediatric health topics and go for a walk with doctors in our community. Starting in April 2020, the Nevada AAP temporarily changed our monthly in-person Walk with a Doc events for the Las Vegas and Reno communities into one, state-wide virtual event the second Sunday of every month.

Walk with a Doc

Free and Kid Friendly

There are 100 reasons to walk!

Walk with a Doc (WWAD) was started in Columbus, Ohio in April of 2005 by Dr. David Sabgir and has now expanded throughout the world. With an aim to make hope and health accessible to all, WWAD doctor-led walking groups are a safe, fun, and FREE place to get some steps, learn about health, and meet new friends.

Starting in April 2020 and until further notice, our monthly Walk with a Doc events will be held virtually (you can also view the past videos below).

For the Las Vegas/Henderson community, the Nevada AAP leads free, kid-friendly Walk with a Doc events the second Sunday of every month. We meet October - May at Springs Preserve in Las Vegas, but we move June - September to Mount Charleston to avoid the heat in the Las Vegas Valley.
