Screen Your Teen (San Diego)
Sun, Jun 08, 2025 09:30 AM - 14:00 PM
Overview
About this Event
Registration secures your spot but day-of walkins are also welcome after 12 pm. Walk-ins under age 18 MUST bring a screening packet with parent signature and contact info. See SCREENING PACKET below to download.
Event includes a cardiac risk assessment, ECG, consultation with a physician and if indicated, a limited echocardiogram. Typically takes less than an hour. You will register for an appointment window.
It costs our foundation $25 to screen a teen once you register, and you are holding a spot from others, so we urge you to keep your appointment or cancel in advance vs. no-showing.
SCREENING PACKET - A MUST! Go to screenyourteens.org to download, fully complete, and bring the screening packet to your screening appointment. EACH YOUTH NEEDS THEIR OWN PACKET.
