We also booked a Mental Health Webinar with them and everyone loved the format, content and delivery. Health First is great and I highly recommend them -- we are now in the process of reserving another Webinar!”

“Dr Michelle Wright, along with Dr Mecky McNeil and nutritionist Emma Jenks, spent a very informative hour talking via zoom to the staff in our Geneva office. The topic was Eat Well, Stress Less, which was very relevant due to the current work from home situation we still have in place. The team really appreciated the contents and the enthusiasm in delivery, and are asking when we'll have another session on other topics !”
