A free mobile health unit has rolled into Northwest Arkansas.

The Walgreens Way to Well Health Tour was in Fayetteville Monday and will be in Rogers Tuesday.

It's a touring medical clinic that delivers free health tests to anyone over age 18.

Free testing is available for 10 things: total cholesterol, glucose, blood pressure, body mass index, body composition, skeletal muscle, resting metabolism, visceral fat, real body age and body weight.

"Prevention is the key to staying healthy," says Well Health Tour staffer Veronica Marmolejo. "Some of the leading diseases out there are cancer, diabetes, and heart disease, so just getting your numbers checked can hopefully help prevent some of those diseases."

Folks with insurance can also get a voucher for a free flu shot.

The Walgreens Way to Well Health Tour rolls into Rogers on Tuesday, November 20.

It will be set up at the Walgreens at 1722 West Walnut from 11:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.
