Knowledge is the best medicine. Our advice on Housecalls is based on short conversation and no physical examination-not the way medicine should be practiced. We encourage you to read more about our topics by going to the library or on the Internet, then make an appointment and really talk with your doctor.

DON'T CALL ME SPECIAL
With the popularity of movies like Murderball and the 2006 Winter Paralymics in Torino, there's a growing awareness of the rich lives that persons with physical disabilities can lead.  Today on House Calls, we take a look at living with a physical disability in Hampton Roads.  We find out about resources available and how to access them.  We hear what Hampton Roads looks like to those with physical disabilities, how to get around, and more.  Join us for this mind-opening discussion on House Calls.
