LifeWorks Wellness Center Welcomes New Doctor

Dr. David Minkoff, founder of LifeWorks Wellness Center, is proud to welcome Dr. Rodney Soto and the Neurology Division to his medical clinic. Dr. Soto is a board certified neurologist and board certified in integrative medicine and anti-aging.

Dr. Soto will host a seminar on Alzheimer’s & Brain Health, at 6:30 p.m., on November 21, at Nature’s Food Patch, 1225 Cleveland Street, Clearwater. At this seminar you will learn about the warning signs of Alzheimer’s and how to prevent it naturally.
