This free health fair is held at the Lufkin Mall and it
offers a wide variety of tests to the public, including
cholesterol and glucose screens. Woodland

Expo, the Women's Expo, and numerous private industry

Additionally, Woodland Heights offers wellness classes

members dealing with the physical and psychological
impact of menopause, which usually affects women age 40
and beyond.
The hospital's Women in Red event focuses on women and
