***It’s time for the Azaelea Classic 5K Race!***

Spring is just around the corner and the MedPeds providers are trying to get in shape! We need your help. We have signed up to walk/run at the Azaelea Classic, a 5K race in University Heights, Maryland that will benefit a local school on Saturday, May 4th at 9 am.

We have started a group called the MedPeds Movers - signing up on that team will automatically get you a $5 discount. There are snacks and music after the races. There is a 1K family walk and a 1-mile competitive run so there is something for everyone. Dogs and strollers are welcome for all races but are put at the back just for the beginning to keep out of the way of the more competitive runners.

We are planning to have our group name on the t-shirt and are inviting all participants from MedPeds to give us ideas that are more "catchy" than we already have. We have until April 10th to review the names.

This is a pilot project and we picked this because it is close to our hearts, it is local, and looks like it will be a lot of fun!! We hope that you will sign up for our team and join us!

Avoid ER for cough, colds, flu, and COVID-19 - UNLESS difficulty breathing

Going to the emergency room for coughs, colds, fevers, and COVID-19 is never a good idea unless you are having difficulty breathing. If there's no difficulty breathing, instead of spending uncomfortable hours and hours in the ER, call us at 301-498-8880 to schedule an appointment with in the office or via telemedicine!

We prefer to take care of you when you are sick, but if we can't offer you a convenient time, go to an urgent care center rather than an emergency room. Remember - no ER for coughs, colds, and fever unless there is difficulty breathing.
