Dr. Moczygemba recently joined @walkwithadoc and shared insights on footwear for bone health and the role proper support can play in helping people stay active.

We all need a place where we feel connected, supported, and seen. In this week’s newsletter, Dr. Sabgir reflects on the importance of finding your “Third Space”, meaningful places beyond home and work that help us thrive: https://t.co/E0G2t1tOrh
We’re excited to celebrate #LMWEEK2026! Across the globe, our Walk with a Doc leaders are stepping outside the clinic to walk alongside their communities. They aren't just talking about #LifestyleMedicine; they’re modeling it in their community, one step at a time. @ACLifeMed
We live in a world that constantly pushes us to move faster, do more, and optimize everything. But healing, connection, and meaningful change rarely happen at full speed. We're embracing “slow medicine” in this week's newsletter: https://t.co/8JMIuoGM4Z
We’re celebrating with Walk with a Doc #Denver as they mark 16 years of walking together! Led by Dr. Andrew Freeman, the group has gathered regularly to walk, build friendships, and share health insights. Learn more about the heart behind this chapter: https://t.co/qMt2ll1BVT
The Walk with a Doc chapter in Tulsa recently featured a discussion on the importance of #SocialConnection, reminding us that spending time with others in a positive setting is very beneficial for our health and wellbeing. https://t.co/XOIdKIvOLT
What an amazing kickoff in Rockville, MD! After a quick brainstorm on the benefits of walking, they split into groups to walk at their own pace. Energized, joyful, and ready for next month! Find a walk near you: https://t.co/XOIdKIwmBr
We're all motivated by different things. No matter your “why,” your pace, or your starting point, you’re invited to Walk with a Doc! Dr. Sabgir shares a story from a recent walk in this week’s newsletter:

Since 2018, @Intermountain has been walking the walk. As a proud #WalkwithaDoc champion, they’ve helped patients and employees step toward better health. In 2025, 10 programs across UT and NV brought together 2,000+ walker visits focused on movement, connection, and community.
Happy #EarthDay! Today’s a great reminder that caring for our health and caring for the planet can go hand in hand. We encourage you to take a walk today, and consider bringing a trash bag to pick up litter while you walk, just like these amazing walkers in Texas! 🌎🚶♀️♻️
#StrengthTraining is a powerful (and often overlooked) complement to walking that supports stronger muscles, better balance, and long-term health. Adding just a couple of simple strength sessions each week can make a big impact, no gym membership needed! https://t.co/qGeUMFfwsY
"My heart was so full of joy, and there were so many smiles," shared Walk Leader Dr. Emily Bertani. "I can’t wait until next month.” Learn how you can start or join a Walk with a Doc program in your community at https://t.co/EWaou0hFSw.
The new Walk with a Doc program in Puyallup, Washington, is off to a great start! Despite rainy weather last weekend, they welcomed more than 20 walkers ranging in age from 3 to 93. After a discussion on understanding food labels, the group enjoyed a walk around the lake.
Since that day in 2005, thousands of doctors in 60+ countries have volunteered to lead #WalkwithaDoc programs in their communities, helping people live healthier, happier lives, one step at a time. And we’re just getting started!
21 years ago, Dr. Sabgir waited at the park, hopeful that patients might accept his invitation to walk. Sure enough, many did. He describes that day as “magical”, people walking side by side, smiling, asking questions, and learning that health can happen outside of the exam room.
