IF YOU NEED A DOCTOR THIS WEEKEND
Guild Members,
With more than a million people coming to Philadelphia this weekend to see Pope Francis access problems to health care because of the large crowds and limited travel routes that will be in place during the Pope’s visit may occur so we want to remind you that you and your family members have 24/7 immediate access to consult a doctor with Teladoc.
