The Glow Gala event was all that it promised to be and more!
Mainline Wellness was proud to be a sponsor of the Glow Gala presented by RBC and BC Women’s Health Foundation, an annual signature event in support of Women’s and newborn health in BC. $1.1 million (and counting) has been raised to support the BC Women’s Hospital & Health Centre. Amazing support!
Extraordinary contribution to women’s health was celebrated and recognized, with Women’s Health Champion awarded to:
Dr. Deborah Money – Women’s Health Leader
Professor in Obstetrics and Gynecology, and a clinician/scientist in Reproductive Infectious Diseases. Dr. Money has led studies on HIV in pregnancy, the HPV vaccine, the vaginal microbiome, and three pan-Canadian studies on COVID-19 in pregnancy.
The Laliji Family – Community Leader
Generous supporters of the BC Women’s Health Foundation and the community.
In 2018, the family’s support helped open the Urgent Care Centre, which serves pregnant patients through to post-birth.
Dr. J and his wife, Tara, couldn’t have been more impressed…
“So proud of Mainline Wellness for sponsoring such a wonderful gala evening! The full range of research in women’s health was discussed and celebrated. It was nice to see such a supportive crowd, fully donating their time and money to this worthy cause.”
With women’s health being such a large part of Mainline Wellness, the cause is close to our hearts. More than a third of young women — nearly 39 percent of those ages 12 to 21 — have an iron deficiency, according to research published in JAMA. And further research shows this holds true for women under 50, with close to 35% suffering from iron deficiency.
How Does Mainline Wellness Fit In?
At Mainline Wellness, we are focused on improving the awareness and understanding of iron deficiency and iron deficiency anemia in Canada to help more patients get the help they need – preoperative or otherwise.
We are committed to offering safe, timely, and accessible ER physician and nurse supervised iron infusions. Speak to your healthcare provider to see if iron infusions may be helpful for you. Treatment can begin within one week.
I don't have a doctor but suspect I'm low iron, what do I do?
If you think you may be a candidate for IV iron but don't have a GP or your care provider is not comfortable referring for IV iron, request a consult with an independent specialist from Well Health. Our new referral system will help you with the access you need.
