Ask the Doc with Dr. Whaley – Tanning & Hearing Aids

BKP and Katy talked with Dr. Whaley today about several great topics. One that is especially important this time of year as most females get ready for “bathing suit season” – Tanning. Dr. Whaley addresses the dangers of tanning beds, discusses spray tans and gives some alternate options that can be used instead to gain a great summer glow. The other viewer questions Dr. Whaley discusses in today’s “Ask the Doc” segment are:

What causes Hashimoto’s thyroiditis, and what is the best method of treatment? Can iodine help this condition?

Hearing aids are very expensive. How often will I have to be making an investment to replace or update them?

If you have questions for our doctor e-mail them to chief@fetchyournews.com or 706-889-9700

We would like to thank Georgia Cancer Specialist for sponsoring this segment!
