Foundation to Advance Vascular Cures Partners with Walk with a Doc to Promote Vascular Health Through a Community Walking Program

The Foundation to Advance Vascular Cures is proud to announce its partnership with Walk with a Doc (WWAD), an international nonprofit organization dedicated to improving community health through movement and conversation. Together, the organizations are bringing free physician-led community walks to more communities, helping people improve vascular health through education, movement, and meaningful conversations.  

The partnership combines the Foundation’s mission to advance vascular health through education, research, and community engagement with Walk with a Doc's proven model of connecting healthcare professionals and community members.

Walk with a Doc was founded by cardiologist Dr. David Sabgir in 2005 with the mission of inspiring communities through movement and conversation. Today, hundreds of walking groups meet worldwide, providing participants with opportunities to exercise, ask health questions, and connect with local healthcare professionals.

Through this collaboration, the Foundation and Walk with a Doc aim to increase awareness of PAD, chronic venous disease, and other vascular conditions while encouraging healthy lifestyle habits that can help prevent disease and improve quality of life.
