  Maryland Seafood Festival 2023

  The 2023 Maryland Seafood Festival came a little earlier this year than in years past, and at a different location. What remained the same though, was the fun, the food, and the festive atmosphere that have kept crowds coming for 57 years! This year, the festival moved from its traditional location, and came to City Dock in Annapolis, just a stone's throw from the Naval Academy and the State House. Crowds were literally lining up at the gate, which was directly in front of the Patient First tent bringing each and every one of the thousands of ticket holders past our booth. We had scores of great conversations with people from all over the Delmarva region, who thanked us for the service we provided them, and loved how clean and organized the centers were. We also had quite a few people from western Maryland, the eastern shore, North Carolina and New York, who while unfamiliar with what we do, were very interested in having us expand into their hometowns. In addition to over a dozen seafood trucks, vendors, and craft beer ...

  Maryland Seafood Festival 2022

  It was the last crab feast of the summer for many, as they traveled to Sandy Point State Park along the west shore of the Chesapeake Bay on September 24th and 25th, for the 56th annual Maryland Seafood Festival. People from all across the Delmarva region turned out in droves to sample the wide range of culinary preparations made possible by the bounty of the bay. As a sponsor of the festival, our Patient First tent was one of the first to greet the approximately 45,000 guests as they passed through the gates of this two day event. Our staff heard nothing but wonderful things from our former patients about the treatment they received, including more than a few who credited our staff with literally saving their lives! In addition to the delicious array of seafood items being offered for sale, the festival featured a crab soup cookoff, several BMX stunt shows, an inflatable fun park, numerous live bands, craft vendors, and games like axe throwing and cornhole. In all, there was a little something for everyone, and we certainly look ...

  32nd Annual Giant Barbecue Battle

  This past weekend, we had an incredible time at the 32nd Annual Barbecue Battle in Washington, D.C. Despite the heat, our first event in the nation's capital was a huge success. The Barbecue Battle, which started in 1993, has grown significantly, closing down the largest strip of downtown into early Monday morning. The event featured 150 food samples and numerous beverage samples, offering plenty of free food and drinks for attendees. In addition to the delicious food, the two-day event hosted two stages for music and performances, as well as a thrilling Olympians and Monster BMX exhibition. The barbecue competition was fierce, with winners taking home $5,000.  Our hand sanitizer was in high demand. Visitors from Massachusetts, Florida, Columbia, Iowa, and even Spain stopped by our booth. We were thrilled to inform them that they could visit any of our centers if they needed medical attention while in the area. We were delighted to reconnect with previous patients from our Maryland centers in Germantown, Glen Burnie, Bowie, Clinton, Waldorf, Rockville, Owings Mills, and Capitol Heights. We also met visitors from our Virginia centers ...

Hundreds of families gathered on June 17 for a night out for baseball, food and fun at the Prince George’s County Stadium in Bowie, Maryland. Staff from Patient First came out to engage with the public by handing out promotional items and spoke about services that Patient First offers. We even snagged a picture with the Bowie team mascot. Patient First is a proud sponsor of the Bowie Baysox baseball team. As a sponsor, Patient First nurses staff the First Aid station at every home game. Go Bowie Baysox!
