“America’s Doctor” will help attendees empower and transform their lives with his entertaining new presentation focused on the top health issues affecting South Floridians today. Topics will include the Zika virus, medical marijuana, opioid addiction, organ donation, aging well, and saving lives with CPR.

Dr. Oz will welcome his special guest, Good Morning America news anchor and health advocate Amy Robach. The seasoned television journalist, and bestselling author and lecturer, will share her advice for living a happy and healthy life. She will also discuss her own breast cancer story, and offer simple ways to commit to a healthier lifestyle every day.

Dozens of sought-after local health and safety professionals will be on hand throughout the mall. They’ll be personally answering questions and showcasing cutting-edge products, procedures, and services.
