Doc Susie’s Herbal Medicine Making Society: A Lesson on Heart Health

This presentation highlights the life of Susan Anderson, MD, (“Doc Susie”) one of Colorado’s earliest women practitioners. Doc Susie was the sole physician in Grand County where she practiced for almost 50 years (from 1909-1956), including caring for the original homesteaders of the land where the current YMCA Snow Mountain Ranch stands. The material will also cover important information on cardiovascular health with a demonstration on how to make simple, heart- healthy herbal preparations.
