2019 Chatham Health Tour
In the fall of 2019, Dr. Hollander and a group of colleagues in the alternative and complementary health care field organized the first Chatham Health Tour. The inaugural Chatham Health Tour (modeled after the Chatham Artist Guild Studio Tour) advertised the mission of educating the community in the area of health and healing. The self-guided tour included a group of eleven Chatham County health practitioners, therapists, healers, and vendors who opened their doors to visitors, many offering complimentary or discounted services in order to raise awareness of the dedicated and diverse health.care offerings in Chatham County.
