Join area physicians and health professionals for a rockin’ good time at “Doc Rock for Health” on Saturday, March 1, in Knoxville’s Old City at “NV” at 125 E. Jackson Ave. (across from Barley’s). Doc Rock features six bands that represent several area hospitals. Each band will play a 45-minute set and compete to win cover charge proceeds, which will benefit their favorite health-based charity.

The local physician band Second Opinion will be playing to support Methodist Medical Center’s Hospitality Houses. These houses primarily provide free lodging to families and patients who travel to Methodist for cancer treatment. The Hospitality Houses have been home to nearly 4,000 guests since opening in 1997.

Second Opinion’s Doc Rock performance will include Methodist Medical Center physicians: gastroenterologist Ken Luckmann, MD; and retired otolaryngologist John Jernigan, MD; plus Parkwest radiologist Daryl Harp, MD; along with friends of Methodist: Melissa Carter, Tim Comer, David Lynch, Larry Sheumaker, and Todd Wright.
