"The Neuromuscular Division of the AdventHealth Neuroscience Institute is overjoyed to partner with the Hereditary Neuropathy Foundation as a Center of Excellence. The HNF has established itself as an organization in which individuals with hereditary neuropathies-also known as CMT-come first. Our division echoes this goal of patients coming first. We are excited to host the Movement is Medicine program here in Orlando; this program will demonstrate not only how much exercise is necessary in hereditary neuropathies, but also how much fun exercise can be by forming new friendships and creating positive energy that can be healing in every way."

-Nivedita Jerath MD, MS Medical Director of Neuromuscular Medicine, AdventHealth

Sponsored by AdventHealth, this Movement is Medicine Summit will be free to attend and feature inspirational speakers, expert instructors and informational breakout sessions specifically curated by and for CMT patients.

Over 100 attendees are expected to participate, with children, caretakers and family members also welcome.

"Our patient-centered approach to the treatment of CMT disease is aligned with the terrific work that Dr. Jerathand her team are doing at the AdventHealth Neuroscience Institute, and we couldn't be more excited to be holding our event at the Center for Health and Wellbeing.
