Patient centered, state of the art women’s healthcare available in Alpharetta at Avalon, Johns Creek and Cumming With no time to be sick, in pain or have surgery, the providers of Modern OBGYN know that educating women with different options for surgery is important. Dr. John Reyes, Dr. Ingrid Reyes, Dr. Natu Mmbaga, Dr. Annie Kim, Dr. Stacey Pereira, and Dr. Christy Kenkel understand that one way of helping women in this busy world is through minimally invasive surgical options via robotic surgery and in-office surgical procedures.

“There are so many great options for women,” Dr. John Reyes said. “It’s our job to get that information to them and make them aware they don’t need large incisions, long hospital stays, or painful recovery times.”

Minimally invasive robotic surgery allows the physicians at Modern OBGYN to operate through just a few small incisions. Featuring a high-definition vision system and tiny wristed instruments that bend and rotate far greater than the human wrist, da Vinci enables them to operate with enhanced vision, precision and control.

As the first surgeons to perform da Vinci robotic surgeries at Emory Johns Creek Hospital, husband and wife team Dr. Ingrid and Dr. John Reyes know some common issues that can be addressed with robotic surgery are hysterectomies, ovarian cysts, pelvic pain and heavy bleeding.

Striving to do their best for the women in the community, Dr. John said, “It’s a blessing to be able to do minimally invasive and robotic surgeries on patients suffering from longstanding issues such as infertility from endometriosis, fibroids, or pelvic adhesive disease.”

Established in 2010, Modern OBGYN has three convenient office locations in Johns Creek, on the Northside Forsyth campus in Cumming, and their newest office location in Alpharetta at Avalon.

Along with compassionate care for patients and their needed surgeries, Modern OBGYN strives to give expecting mothers the support they need by making sure that the mothers personally

know their provider. Modern OBGYN has a highly experienced team of Certified Nurse Midwives who work alongside each physician to provide well-rounded, patient-centered and personal obstetrical care. You’ll always know us, and we’ll always know you,” Dr. John said.

“No surprises when it comes time to deliver!”

Dr. John says the best part about building provider-patient relationships is, “We can help them become pregnant, and come full-circle to care for them during their pregnancy and delivery. It’s the full spectrum of caring for what’s so important to a woman’s life—her health and her family.”

Modern OBGYN also provides routine annual exams, Pap smears, HPV testing, irregular cycles, menopause and other common women’s issues. The physicians perform robotic surgery at both Emory Johns Creek Hospital and Northside Hospital-Forsyth.

Alpharetta Business Association celebrates 25 years of serving local businesses Back in 1994, a group of downtown Alpharetta merchants banded together to promote their shops and restaurants in an effort to draw customers to the area.

Now, 25 years later, that determination has paid off. That small group of business owners has transformed into the Alpharetta Business Association and Alpharetta has become one of the best cities to live, work and play in Metro Atlanta.

The Alpharetta Business Association was originally known as the Downtown Alpharetta Business Association (DABA) created 25 years ago. Today, the Alpharetta Business Association continues its commitment to the historic Alpharetta area as it continues to grow, change, and provide unlimited opportunities. The Alpharetta Business Association’s reach now extends beyond downtown to every corner of Alpharetta.

The organization welcomes all businesses in Alpharetta and the surrounding areas to join. Alpharetta Business Association membership includes

dedicated business professionals who work together to improve the business climate in Alpharetta.

The Alpharetta Business Association is the presenting organization of many local events and projects, including: • Downtown Alpharetta Farmers Market – award-winning market featuring nearly 100 vendors every Saturday from mid-April to the end of October.

• Alpharetta Business Expo – one of the largest business expos in North Fulton County.

• Brew Moon Fests – spring and fall events featuring live music, food, and of course brews.

• State of the City Address and Mayor’s Breakfast – annual event for the Alpharetta Mayor to deliver the outlook for the City in the coming year.

• Alpharetta Guidebook – comprehensive magazine that provides information about the City.

• Monthly morning and evening networking meetings.

Benefits of using a REALTOR® when going through the home buying and selling process Brought to you by – BILL RAWLINGS Senior Vice President & Managing Broker, North Atlanta Office, Atlanta Fine Homes Sotheby’s International Realty Atlanta Fine Homes Sotheby’s International Realty is honored to have been chosen as the 2019 Best Real Estate Brokerage of North Atlanta by APPEN Media Group for the fourth Rawlings year in a row! We pride ourselves on creating relationships with our clients and successfully helping them find the homes of their dreams. Our focus is on our clients, as we provide million-dollar marketing for homes in all price ranges and believe that service defines the Sotheby’s International Realty® brand, not price point.

There are numerous benefits to using an agent when you are in the market to buy a new home, as this can be a stressful and intimidating process. Having a licensed professional to help walk you through the buying process can help to relieve the pressure and make your experience more enjoyable. Especially for a first-time home buyer, an agent will be by your side to answer your questions and concerns and prepare you for potential obstacles that may arise while professionally marketing your home to prospective buyers.

Finding the right home for you: Once you deter-

mine what you are looking for, the next step will be for your REALTOR® to book appointments and walk you through potential homes. These appointments can help narrow down your criteria and determine what you truly desire in a home. Your REALTOR® will have the knowledge to explain the area, neighborhoods, schools and valuable information you will need to know before making a final decision to purchase a home.

Negotiating an offer: Your agent will advise you on an acceptable offer price, while also helping you to negotiate a deal that could save you money. This is such a crucial part of buying a home, and it allows your REALTOR® to use their expertise in the negotiation process.

Professional recommendations: There are so many aspects to buying a home and professional resources are always needed. Agents make suggestions on reliable sources they have used in the past, from a trustworthy mortgage broker to home inspectors – just another way a real estate agent can help to relieve stress during the process of finding a new home.

Overcoming obstacles: During the due-diligence period, new issues can arise and a real estate professional can help counsel you toward a solution. This is a time when negotiation is key and it is extremely helpful to have someone on your side who is knowledgeable, experienced, calm and in control, should a situation occur.

Please keep Atlanta Fine Homes Sotheby’s International Realty in mind next time you are in the market to buy a new home. Our trained sales professionals are the perfect guides to walk you through the buying and selling process. Visit AtlantaFineHomes.com or call our office at 770.442.7300 to allow one of our dedicated professionals assist you today.

Best DERMATOLOGIST

An interview with Dr. Taylor

By Alyssa McNamara I had the pleasure of sitting down with Dr. Taylor after his 2018 Best of win and again this week after his 3rd consecutive Best of win to talk about his continued success. The following is a compilation of both interviews.

Last year’s interview took place while Dr. Taylor held his newborn son Broderick or “Bodi.” As we discussed his practice’s progress, he laughed at the “happy chaos” that is his home life. Even without a newborn in his arms, he is as I remember him – warm and likeable. I looked back at my notes from my last interview and my observations still apply: “After speaking with him for an hour, I am well aware of the reasons for his renown.

He is warm, instantly calming, respectful and shockingly intelligent. Despite having a youthful face that, at first glance, might make you question his experience, his knowledge and surgical ability are well established: both are touted in patient reviews and displayed in a vast surgical portfolio. He is loved and respected by his patients and his staff, and it is easy to see why. He is, to say the least, a genuine individual and accomplished physician.”

Congratulations on winning both Best Dermatologist and Best Vein Specialist of North Atlanta yet again! You must be proud. It is quite an honor to win these titles, let alone several years in a row!

To what do you attribute to your success?

Dr. Taylor: Well thank you very much!

You’re right. It is an honor to win and I am extremely appreciative of the accolade.

I am very fortunate to live and work in an area that has exceptional healthcare including outstanding dermatologists and remarkable Mohs surgeons.

Moreover, residents of North Fulton are smart consumers, who do their research on their potential physicians. Given this, I truly value the confidence that my patients have placed in me.

I don’t have any hidden secret to Premier Dermatology’s success per se. I have been trained by exceptional physicians and I work with exceptional people. I strive to always be patientcentered, to put the patient first, to read up, perform extra research for my patients and advocate for them. Quality controls, back-up systems and patient care processes are an area of special interest for me. I have been an airplane pilot for over ten years, and I believe that the strategies for safety and quality that aviation emphasizes have translated

into improved processes within my own practice.

But most importantly, I really owe so much to our amazing staff! We have the same amazing staff that we did last year with one excellent addition. Given that, we are a small practice with only 8 staff members, I am beyond thankful for their expertise, compassion and the concern that they have for our patients. We spend a lot of time together given our 10 to 12 hour work days, so it is invaluable that we all get along and not only like our jobs but strive to excel and improve our processes. We have been open over two and half years now and are constantly trying to improve wherever we can. I think that’s part of our success: patients recognize our genuine concern and commitment to excellence.

Is there something that you feel sets you apart?

Dr. Taylor: Actually I do believe I spend an unusual amount of time with my patients. As a procedural dermatologist, I am used to a smaller volume of patients with longer visits so that translates over to my general dermatology patients. Granted sometimes that means my schedule runs behind, but ultimately our patients leave knowing that they received thorough, high quality care. And I appreciate the understanding my patients show me, because I think that they can tell that if I am running behind that it is because I chose to give a prior patient the time he or she needed rather than run on schedule.

Regarding Mohs surgery and vein care, my fellowship covered multiple aspects of surgical dermatology, so I feel that I am able to address some of the extra concerns that patients may have that would otherwise be referred to other specialists or simply not be handled, and I perform these services at the level you would expect from someone who is fellowship-trained and board-certified. For example, I can treat medically significant vein disease with various procedures such as laser ablation and foam sclerotherapy then, once resolved, clear up the cosmetic vein issues with sclerotherapy or laser treatments. I am also one of the only physicians in Georgia with a lab that allows me to cure melanoma with true Mohs surgery. In general, these would be treated by different specialists or would be treated using non-equivalent techniques.

Could you please comment on your background and experience?

Dr. Taylor: I believe my experience is notable given my number of years in

practice. Surgeons gain experience and perfect their skills through research and practice. As a result of training at very busy institutions then working for some of the busiest practices in Florida, I have performed over ten thousand dermatologic procedures. I completed my fellowship 5 years ago. Having been a Mohs surgeon at the University of Florida and also working in private practice in Florida before moving to Atlanta to be closer to family, I was lucky enough to take care of a great many patients who had extremely large cancers and required extensive reconstruction. As you might imagine, Florida residents need considerable dermatologic care. I am honored to take care of people with genuine need and am lucky to have been prepared by

outstanding mentors who trained me.

Upon starting my own practice here in Alpharetta, I already had the volume of experience usually found with a Mohs surgeon who has been in practice much longer.

Anything else you’d like to say?

Dr. Taylor: I really just want to say thank you very much! Thank you to our staff: you are valued and wonderful and we wouldn’t be continuing to excel without each and every one of you! Also thank you so very much to all of our patients and our community! Your confidence and support is greatly appreciated and rewarding. I look forward to continuing to strive to provide patients with exceptional care.

Exquisite Living – Honored to be voted Best Furniture/Home Décor of North Atlanta 2019!

Exquisite Living owner, Zaina Wuest, and her team, are honored to be voted Best Furniture/Home Décor in the 2019 Best of North Atlanta contest. In just a few short years, Zaina Wuest has transformed her side gig as an interior designer to a thriving furniture and home design business.

Exquisite Living opened its doors in 2016 with a store on Atlanta Highway.

The space has since more than doubled from 3,200 square feet to 8,200 square feet. In 2017, Wuest left her corporate job to run the store full time.

This year, Exquisite Living opened its second location in Alpharetta City Center, right across from City Hall. The stylish furniture and elegant décor are right at home among the boutiques of the downtown.

Wuest credits her company’s fast growth and success to its superior customer service and the bonds she forms with her clients.

“It’s about the relationship and not feeling like you’ve gone somewhere and somebody just tried to sell you something,” she said.

Exquisite Living employs four consul-

Wuest credits her company’s fast growth and success to its superior customer service and the bonds she forms with her clients. tants with an educational background in interior design.

“It’s one of the things we do differently, which is the reason our design side has done tremendously,” Wuest said.

“Most furniture stores offer complementary design service, but that’s just a sales person going in there and seeing what inventory they can pull out of the store.”

The designers work with the sales team and the client to help the homeowners come up with a plan for their space.

“We discuss with the client what their priorities are, their budget,” Wuest said.

“We’re really big on respecting budget and timeline.”

When she set out to build Exquisite Living, Wuest studied the factors that usually prevent someone from hiring a professional designer. Many shoppers feel pressured by sales people who put artificial deadlines on the design process, she said.

Wuest then set out to eliminate those hang-ups from her business model.

“The client can take a look at [the plan] and say ‘Today I have budget for two rooms. Six months down the road when my husband gets his bonus, I can do upstairs,’ and so on and so forth,” She said. “I think that’s a big differentiator for us. No one feels pressured.”

The designs give homeowners confidence in how their rooms will turn out.

“Once they get the plan they feel comfortable because they can visualize what their home is going to look like and now the decision is up to them when they want to do it and how much they want to spend,” she said.

This strategy of putting service before sales has proven fruitful, with many clients returning to Exquisite Living for multiple rooms or even multiple houses.

Wuest said developing trust with the

homeowners is the most valuable currency for her.

With a new location in the heart of Alpharetta, Wuest is looking for new ways to have Exquisite Living be involved with the community. She is researching ways the business can help local philanthropic groups.

“I really want to decorate for those children that suffer from cancer and have just a few days left, where they can be in a room that they enjoy and the room that they always wanted,” she said.

Another way the company is getting involved in the community, Exquisite Living recently partnered with Appen Media Group to hold a room makeover sweepstakes. One lucky Herald newspaper reader won a $5,000 room redesign.

“Every business ought to do something like this, especially when you’re such a neighborhood kind of business,” Wuest said. “I’d like to continue finding opportunities like that to do more.”

Exquisite Living has stores at 374 Commerce Street and 6225 Atlanta Highway. For more information about its services, visit exquisitelivingatl.com or call (770) 807-0675.

Isn’t my home worth more money?

My neighbor’s home sold quickly and for more than asking price, but not mine. John Hogan, owner of Remodeling Expo Center, says “I’m confronted with this question all the time.” At Remodeling Expo Center we’re in the business of making our customer’s home investment grow. Mr. Hogan emphasizes. “It’s both an art and a science”. People can debate about how much, or what to remodel but the core answer is – “Remodeling is an investment, not an expense”, and because it’s such a large investment, professional advice should be sought.

I general, people who do not ever remodel their homes, and believe that their homes will naturally appreciate are the people who are the most disappointed with their home values. The fact is that, the value of a home is determined by what someone is willing to pay for it, and as time passes, the desirability of the elements of a home change (closet size, stainless appliances, etc.). It’s analogous to a stock market investor rebalancing their portfolio over time.

These days people move around a lot, due to schools, jobs etc. “My favorite customers are the one who have made significant profits because we’ve remodeled 2 or 3 homes for them” says Mr. Hogan. “We know what the new home buyer wants, and we adapt homes to have these features, designs and colors, so they sell fast and for maximum price.

We know where and how much money to spend. We advise homeowners to spend only “Smart money”.

At Remodeling Expo Center we’re in the business of making our customer’s home investment grow.

Home owners who profit on the sale of their homes have a savvy investor attitude and just like the stock market, if you don’t invest, you don’t profit. And just like the stock market, over time, it only goes up. With your home, invest in the right amounts and in the right places” your home value will increase impressively.

Here are some examples of easy ways to improve home value: open up the kitchen to the family room, make room for a big single level island, paint the house something other than beige!, remove all the cultured marble in the bathroom, get rid of all the gold/brass fixtures in the bathroom and lastly install recessed can lighting to brighten the house up.

To learn more about how to boost your home value, contact The Remodeling Expo Center at 404 910-3969 or stop in at 48 King Street, Roswell, GA 30075. www.RemodelingExpo.com

The best breakfast is here!

Here at The Original Pancake House Alpharetta we do things differently than other breakfast restaurants. There are a lot of quality features that you can only get at our location in the ever growing breakfast market. For many years full service breakfast restaurants have been under served in the restaurant market arena. That is slowly becoming not the case as many new full service breakfast chains and franchises emerge on the scene.

The Original Pancake House is a franchise and one of the oldest. OPH started franchising in 1954. We are unique in that we have not changed a thing since then. The menu and the recipes are the same. The quality and ingredients we use are uncompromised.

Just a few examples: We squeeze orange juice every morn-

ing. It takes 5 to 8 oranges to make a single glass of juice.

We buy all of our eggs from a local egg farmer. He delivers hundreds of dozens of eggs to us several times a week and we hand crack them all. Other breakfast restaurants buy eggs that are bagged and cracked by a machine in advance.

Often, we are asked, what does “BurgerFi” mean?

BurgerFi is abbreviated from “BurgerFication”, meaning ‘changing the way people eat burgers.’ BurgerFi changed the operational model burger chains have used for decades; the biggest change is in the quality of meat we serve. Our meat is superior to any other quick serve restaurant; here’s how we know how our quality stacks up: BurgerFi Scores “A” Grade BurgerFi was identified as one of the TOP two national brands in the burger industry having the highest standards for our beef. We received an «A» grade on the 4th Annual Chain Reaction Scorecard released by six major consumer and environmental organizations.

Of 25 brands tested, BurgerFi received

“A”, next brand was «D minus», ALL remaining 22 brands scored an «F».

Serving responsibly raised, antibioticfree, American Black Angus Beef has ALWAYS been the BurgerFi business model, delivering clean, fresh food plus the good practices that stand behind it.

You know our great taste, now you know we serve you the highest quality beef out there!

What’s NEW? Fi’ed Chicken tenders! Chicken Breast Tenders, served with your choice of dipping sauce: Fi Sauce, Bacon Jalapeño Ranch, Honey Mustard Barbecue, Memphis Sweet Barbecue or Garlic Aioli.

You’ll love ‘em, sauce up! Tenders are on our kids’ menu too & they eat free Monday nights! All chicken offerings are cage free, no hormone, antibiotics, chemicals or additives, ever! Or our Fi’ed Chicken Sandwich with its crispy, oh my goodness is topped with Honey Mustard Barbecue sauce! Another newbie is our plant based Beyond Burger, zero cholesterol, no soy or gluten yet great taste & texture Vegan and Vegetarian friendly with 20 grams of protein!

Enjoy A Frozen CUSTARD! Let’s face it, sometimes you just need

a little something sweet. So, bring the family and hang out on the “Best Patio” to create some moments to remember.

Fulton Science Academy Private School Recently named the most diverse high school in Atlanta and ranked as seventh overall by Niche.com, Fulton Science Academy Private School (FSAPS) is one of Alpharetta’s most unique educational institutions. Nestled in the heart of Alpharetta near downtown, FSAPS is accessible and strategically located. With the student population approximately 675, FSAPS emphasizes small classes and an intimate student-teacher ratio.

This classroom model allows for personalized, learning-focused preparation and enhances the overall citizenship of students. In addition to a Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Mathematics (STEAM) curriculum, FSAPS is STEM and AdvancedEd accredited. This means students pursue advanced content for core subject areas, including high school offerings of AP courses. For two years, FSAPS has produced semi-finalists in the National Merit Scholarship Program.

Although it is emphasized, academic excellence is only part of the equation.

Students are guided by acclaimed, published, and nationally recognized experts in math, social studies, science, and robotics. The academic teams at FSAPS have been honored to represent the state of Georgia not just nationally, but also internationally. These competitions

have included Math Counts, Science Olympiad, and more. Students also have opportunities to participate in national honor societies and leadership groups.

They are supported closely by advisors, who work with them in small groups to accomplish leadership and service-oriented projects that significantly impact their communities.

Our mission statement reads: “To establish an educational framework designed to achieve the highest academic results and instill enduring strength of

character by leveraging innovation and STEAM curriculums for college preparedness and lifelong student success.”

These words convey the objectives not only of the institution’s outstanding students, but also of the faculty. At FSAPS, students are encouraged to think outside the box, to practice and apply critical thinking, and to understand the impact of their actions and innovations on the greater community; more important, students are encouraged to practice supporting others and their initiatives.

At the 2019 graduation ceremony of FSAPS’s first senior class, the collective diversity of volunteerism, leadership, academics, athletics, and creativity were evidenced as the driving force behind the graduates. It was not one characteristic of any individual, but the collective aspects of an FSAPS education coming together to produce a complete student, prepared and ready to thrive in the outside world. Graduates from this class have gone on to pursue honor programs at some of the nation’s top universities, including: Brown, UC Berkeley, Purdue, UNC Chapel Hill, and Georgia Tech.

As an organization that combines academics with professionalism, community involvement and partnerships are pivotal. As a member of the Technology Association of Georgia (TAG), students here have access to resources that help build life skills. Many students have been accepted into the Greater North Fulton Chamber of Commerce (GNFCC) Young Leaders Program annually, and more have participated in events hosted by the Alpharetta Chamber of Commerce. These relationships cement for students the truth that they are more than just individuals, but integral parts of a greater community with important roles.

Medical Fitness and Wellness Group Founded in 2014 and winner for best Nutritionist and best Holistic/ Alternative Medicine in North Fulton, Medical Fitness and Wellness Group is the only fully integrated wellness facility in Johns Creek providing Personal Training, Corrective Exercise, Chiropractic care, Corrective Massage Therapy, Medical Exercise for chronic conditions, as well as our award-winning nutrition program for weight loss and diabetes prevention/ management.

Having practiced in Forsyth and North Fulton since 1998, Dr. Jim Morrow founded the practice in 2011 in Cumming. Morrow Family Medicine expanded into North Fulton with a location in Milton three years ago. Currently with seven providers, Morrow Family Medicine practices with a concentration in chronic disease management, episodic care and preventive medicine.

Patients are able to be seen “same-day” by utilizing the morning walk-in hour that guarantees that no patient has to wait for the care they need and deserve.

Patients are able to communicate online, via a smartphone app or traditional telephone to accomplish their healthcare goals. Return communication from the practice is prompt and useful, resulting in healthier outcomes for our patients.

Morrow Family Medicine is the originator of the Forsyth BYOT Benefit.

With two fund-raising events a year, the charity has donated over $300,000 to Forsyth County Schools to improve

the use of technology in the classroom and at home by providing devices and home Internet for those without it.

At Morrow Family Medicine, we know that you have many choices for healthcare, but we will strive to be the best choice for you. We are a technologically advanced, yet “old-fashioned” family practice. If you are looking for people who care, you have come to the right place. We believe that you will find a home with Morrow Family Medicine.

Home Helpers of Alpharetta voted Best Home Care for Seniors for the third time!

THANK YOU for voting The Providence Group as the Best Home Builder in North Atlanta! We are honored and hope to see you at one of our beautiful communities soon!

Visit TheProvidenceGroup.com to find out more.

678.472.0411

TheProvidenceGroup.com

Home Helpers of Alpharetta is honored to once again be voted the Best Home Care for Seniors in North Atlanta.

Marking our third year in a row, we’d like to sincerely thank everyone who voted for us!

“It’s been so rewarding to be trusted by our clients and their families as we partner to help them maintain their independence as they age in place in the comfort of their own home” say Hilary and Greg Eldridge. “We feel that through it all, it’s our commitment to a truly personalized approach that makes the difference between good and great care. As our clients have needs that change, we fine tune their care and do everything we can to help them thrive.”

Hilary and Greg built this business as a tribute to Hilary’s father, and set out seven years ago to raise the bar for in-home care. “I saw what a difference truly personalized care made in my Dad’s life and always strive to provide the kind of care he’d be proud to have inspired”, says Hilary. “His youthfulspirit perspective is the cornerstone of our commitment to recognize that despite the passing years, each of our clients has a youthful spirit. Engaging that lets us share in the richness of their lives, both past and the present.”

Our caregivers and supervisory team are key to our success, and you’ll quickly recognize that this is more than a career for them, it’s a calling. Their heart-centered approach to caregiving is apparent when you see them connect with a client to not just bring a smile, but help bring confidence and joy to face the day. We go through a careful caregiver and client matching process, with screening and training programs that recognize not just their skills, but their personality and spirit.

We’re there when you need us - from six hours a day, several days a week to 24/7 care.

A Home Helpers caregiver has the skills to assist with all personal care, help around the house, safely speed up recovery from surgery, or provide specialized care for Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, etc.

“One of the biggest changes we’ve seen this year is the growing realization on the part of our clients and their families that as physical and emotional needs become more complex, live-in care is an alternative that can be an ideal choice”, says Greg. “The continuity of care and totally customized service is a major benefit for your loved one. With typically two caregivers involved, the reliability and constancy can be very calming. A heart-centered Home Helper caregiver lives in a home for four days a week, with another caregiver completing the weekly schedule. They provide all the support needed and sleep there, so they are available for minimal quick assistance at night or when emergencies happen. As long as they can get five hours of uninterrupted sleep and eight hours total for a good night’s rest, it provides a safe and secure environment in the comfort of home. With a daily versus hourly fee, it can also be sound economically.”

For a free in-home consultation to create a customized plan to help your loved one live life to the fullest, please call Home Helpers of Alpharetta at (678) 430-8511.
