June 14th, 2019 was #WorldBloodDonorDay. The event was first held back in 2004. This day serves to raise awareness of the need for safe blood, platelets, and plasma. Dr. Velimir Petkov and the Premier Podiatry staff decided to partake in this wonderful initiative by volunteering to donate blood at a local center in North Jersey. We implore you to give the life-saving gift of blood by donating yourself. #SaveALife Facts: - A single blood donation can help save 3 lives. - An accident victim may need up to 50 units of red blood cells. - There is no risk of infection through giving blood. #SafeBloodForAll - Donors can donate red blood cells up to 4 times per year. At Premier Podiatry, our knowledgeable, compassionate and dedicated healthcare professionals' goal is to provide exceptional comprehensive foot and ankle care to patients, allowing them to enjoy an active lifestyle. Our modern family-friendly podiatry office in Clifton, NJ is home to some of the most advanced technologies and procedures in the field. Visit us at: www.premier-podiatry.com
