Attendees are asked to register at 22ndCenturyMedia. com/healthy. Organizers expect more than 800 guests to take in the activities, said Heather Warthen, 22nd Century Media’s chief events officer. “It’s a great event for capitalizing on New Year’s resolutions and for people who may have already given up on those goals,” Warthen said. “It’s a good reminder that, ‘Hey, maybe you shouldn’t give up on those resolutions.’” The day kicks off with a cooking class led by chef Tim Baran, of Joliet Junior College’s culinary arts program, and a presentation on healthy eating tips from Kimberly Kramer, a UChicago Medicine registered dietitian. Food-focused programming continues through the morning and early afternoon. “People get exposed to a lot of ideas, like meal planning, through social media but may have no idea how to start,” Warthen said. “The speakers are there to get them going in the right direction.” Another portion of the expo hall will be dedicated to halfhour fitness courses led by Fred Astaire Dance Studio and TRG Exclusive Fit Club & Salon, among others. “We’ll have a lot of cardio and dance, so it should be a lot of fun,” Warthen said.

The staff at Midwest Orthopaedic Consultants, with locations in both Oak Lawn and Orland Park, has served the region with more than 80 years of combined orthopedic experience. “Midwest Orthopaedic Consultants brings university level ortho care close to home,” said Todd Mensik, MOC’s marketing representative. “All of our surgeons are fellowship trained in a specific body part making them more experienced in treating the symptoms you’re having,” Back on your feet ranges of orthopedic services are offered at MOC, including injections, surgeries, MRIs and X- rays, urgent care and physical therapy.

The keys to Midwest Orthopaedic Consultant’s success are the doctors. “They are caring, compassionate, educated and motivated to get our patients better and bring them back to the lifestyle they’re used to,” he said, adding that surgeons on staff continuously educate themselves on the latest technology to “help in your recovery process while knowing their limitations.” Roots in patient care The practice began in 1995 when five orthopedic surgery specialists from the Oak Lawn area met to discuss changes in the practice of medicine. Their principal concerns were on improving patient care, streamlining delivery of care and maximizing outcomes for its patients. As orthopedic surgeons, they “were best fit to handle those challenges,” Mensik said. Since that time, Midwest Orthopaedic Consultants has grown and evolved. While the practice started in a small building in Oak Lawn, it very quickly outgrew that site. Its primary headquarters is now in a large center in Orland Park and upgrades were done to a new Oak Lawn location on 95th Street.
