Welcome to Family Health® on the Net. Here you can find out more about the series and sample some of our programs.
Family Health® is a daily series of 2 1/2 minute audio programs designed to reach a general listening audience with practical, easy-to-understand answers to some of the most frequently asked questions about health and health care. The series deals with a wide variety of health-related subjects. While rarer diseases are occasionally covered, the focus of the series is on the common health problems about which people are likely to ask their family physicians.
