Celebrating Community & Care: APPNA STC Healthfair Reaches Over 500 Patients!

I am absolutely thrilled to announce that the APPNA STC health fair held on 5/4/25 was a smashing success!

A huge shoutout to our fearless Healthfair Committee Chair Dr. Bilal Lodhi @⁨Bilal Lodhi⁩, co-chair Dr. Noor Punjwani @⁨~Noor Punjwani⁩, entire committee, BOT and EC.
Your vision and dedication transformed this event into a true healthcare extravaganza!

Let’s give a round of applause to the entire APPNA STC family, especially those who rolled up their sleeves to serve at the clinic. With our incredible team of dentists, physicians, and surgeons, we managed to care for over 500 patients—talk about a busy day at the office!

We were honored to have Dr. Suleman Lalani @⁨~Suleman Lalani⁩, Texas State Representative for District 76, as our guest of honor. His presence and hands-on support at the clinic were like adding a cherry on top of an already fantastic sundae!

A special nod to our fantastic volunteer kids (Jedis) with dreams of becoming the next medical rock stars. Your enthusiasm and hard work didn’t just help; they made us all shine brighter!

We’re just getting started, folks! Buckle up for more free health fair clinics throughout the year. Stay tuned for updates and get ready to join the fun!
