ABOUT US

CHARLOTTE – Mayor Vi Lyles admits that she sometimes regrets things said at meetings, but she doesn't regret the conclusion of months of spirited debate regarding the Charlotte Future 2040 Comprehensive Plan. The council adopted the plan by a 6-5 vote June 21. Lyles noted how each member of council had the opportunity to express themselves as well as to challenge the thinking of colleagues and staff.

"In many areas of Charlotte, it would destroy community fabric and not even be desirable." • Ed Driggs on "10-minute neighborhoods" “I think we need more examples of this kind of hard work that we're doing,” she said. She encouraged the council not to shirk responsibility after this vote, but instead to bring their A game to the table, act as expected of the people that elected them and

figure out ways to have such conversations without feeling regret later on. “Respect and decorum is what this community is built on,” she said. The plan is designed to guide future planning decisions and create

more equitable growth. The final adopted plan will be released to the public within the next 30 days. Councilman Malcolm Graham was among the six that voted in favor of the plan. Others were Dimple Ajmera, Julie Eiselt, Larken Egleston, Greg Phipps and Braxton Winston. Graham said allowing housing diversity all over Charlotte helps bridge the affordable housing gap. see COMP, Page 5A

CHARLOTTE – A formerly homeless teen from Charlotte who offers hope to people in shelters through a nonprofit started when she was 9 is now expanding her effort with new grant funding. ZaNia Stinson, 14, founded Z Feeds Go-Go Bags to provide bags with nonperishable food, drinks, toiletries and encouraging reading materials to the homeless. She recently won Riley’s Way Foundation's Call for Kindness competition – an annual contest that offers up to $3,000 to teen-led projects that inspire kindness, strengthen communi-

and bring them to more homeless shelters around Charlotte. see NONPROFIT, Page 5A

CHARLOTTE – Publix hopes to breathe new life into an older business park. The grocer is seeking to rezone a 4.4-acre site along the west side of Carmel Commons Boulevard, south of Pineville-Matthews Road and east of Carmel Road. The property is home to a vacant office building. Collin Brown, an attorney with Alexander Ricks PLLC, said it was a very robust office location 20 or 30 years ago. “485 and Ballantyne kind of sucked that office energy out, so this is an area that's been struggling for a while,” Brown said. “This office building has been vacant for a bit. What we've heard from the community here is they would really like this revitalized – bring something else with some life to the area.” Rezoning the property from office to mixed use would be inconsistent with the South District Plan, but city staff feels the proposal will lead to reinvestment in the office park, according to Dave Pettine, rezoning manager with the city. Pettine also pointed to transportation improvements and at least 5,000 square feet of urban open space among the perks. No one spoke against the proposal during the June 21 public hearing. The council may vote on it as early as next month. “Publix has actually owned this property for several years,” Brown told the council. “They have known this is a location they wanted to expand.”

Pineville gets another South Charlotte car dealership by Justin Vick justin@cmgweekly.com

PINEVILLE – Mayor Pro Tem Melissa Davis has a pet peeve when it comes to car dealerships. They all find Pineville to be a desirable place to sell cars, but they identify their dealerships as South Charlotte. The Pineville Town Council gave the green light June 22 to allow the the old Funtastics site at 10400 Cadillac St. to be redeveloped into a Subaru dealership. It will be called Subaru South Charlotte.

Davis: "It is disappointing that the businesses that move to Pineville do not want to claim to be in Pineville."

Subaru will join a parade of vehicle brands that call Pineville home. Here is a 3-D rendering of a dealership approved June 22 by the Pineville Town Council. Photo courtesy of Town of Pineville

“It is disappointing that the businesses that move to Pineville do not

want to claim to be in Pineville,” Davis said.

The building on site will be demolished for a new one. The dealership will have six cars displayed out front with parking and service bays at the rear of the building. A car wash will be toward the back of the 10-acre property. The rezoning process was relatively painless for the Subaru team. Members of the council wanted to ensure that tractor-trailers weren't unloading vehicles on Cadillac Street as well as that the grass was maintained – even during construction. see SUBARU, Page 5A

need to take you back 14 years when my family built our shed. I researched all the big-box home improvement centers, borrowing (or should I say stealing) the best ideas from them. I didn’t want the typical six foot by eight foot shed. I had a lot to store in it. At the time, my son bought a 1941 Buick he was going to restore. Fenders, bumpers and the hood needed a dry place. We built a shed that was 12 feet by 16 feet. The door opening was seven feet wide. The door height was over six feet. You could park a 1965 Mustang inside it. We used it for more than storing the lawnmower. A few years later, my mother asked me to store some items in it on a shelf. Over the years, I forgot what it was she placed there. Since that time, my kids married and moved out of the house. My son took the 1941 Buick with him. We rearranged areas of the shed but not the shelving. For whatever reason,

the items my mother had me put on the shelf never moved. I arranged chainsaws and paint around it. A few weeks ago, my wife and I were looking for something in the shed. I saw these bags. Not knowing what it was I opened it. One was my mother’s wedding album from the late 1940s. There were high school photos of my two sisters. There was my sister’s wedding album. We took the items and brought them in the house to examine. I had to laugh as one of the bags was a “Shop Rite” bag. Shop Rite was the big grocery store in New Jersey. This bag was over 25 years old. But more important than the bag was the rich history it contained.

I saw pictures of uncles and aunts that had died in the late 1980s or early 1990s. I thought with fondness of the many memories of cousins getting together for backyard birthday celebrations and family cookouts. While we were the “kid” cousins, there were photos of the “adult” cousins on my grandfather’s side of the family. I had to reflect to the 1910 decade when both grandparents left Italy for a better life for their family. They would leave everyone they loved behind, knowing they would never see them again. There had to be a tug on their hearts to stay behind. In the late 1800s, there had been a lot of fighting between the city states of Italy. It wasn’t safe place to live. It was said that the only one you can trust is your family. That may be why the Italian culture is so very focused on the family. My four grandparents came to a world where they didn’t know anyone. I joke that my paternal grandfather landed in Ellis Island and traveled three blocks to live in Jer-

sey City. My maternal grandfather traveled a little bit further – eight miles away. They came because they wanted something better for their family. The sacrifice they made was huge. They came to a land where they didn’t know anyone, nor did they know the language. They left behind everything that was familiar and everyone they knew and loved. All they brought with them was what they could carry. More importantly, they brought the dream of a better life for their family. Next weekend we celebrate our freedom from Britain’s tyranny. Freedom isn’t free. It costs men and women their very lives so we can enjoy life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. I’ll be back soon. Until then, live well my friend. The Rev. Tony Marciano is the president/CEO of the Charlotte Rescue Mission. He is available to speak to your group. Visit www.charlotte rescuemission.org for details.

Investment Grant. Last week, the company also announced that it is paying more than $140 million to settle lawsuits for breach of Medicaid contracts. The suits were brought by Ohio and Mississippi, whose state attorneys general alleged Centene misled their state Medicaid programs, causing overpayment by the state health programs. The allegations stem from Centene’s business practices in Medicaid’s pharmacy benefits reimbursements from 2017 and 2018. The states accuse Centene of using contractors to drive up pharmacy reimbursements. Ohio’s Department of Justice called it an “elaborate scheme” born of “corporate greed.” “Centene took advantage of all of us who pay taxes to care for the most vulnerable Ohioans,” Ohio Attorney General Dave Yost said in a news release last week. “Centene used sophisticated moves to bill unearned dollars – moves known only at the top levels of health care companies,” Yost said. “It has taken a huge effort by my team to untangle this scheme – and now that we know how it works, the alarm bells should be ringing for anyone using similar tactics.” Yost agreed to drop the suit after Centene settled, paying Ohio $88.3 million and Mississippi $55 million. The company has also reportedly reserved $1.1 billion for any future settlements with other states. The company denies any liability and says the settlement does not indicate an admission of fault in the accusations. In Monday’s dedication, Centene CEO Michael Neidorff said that Centene is going to be a part of North Carolina’s Medicaid transformation to managed care planned for launch next month. “We are honored to be part of North Carolina’s Medicaid transformation rollout starting July 1,” Neidorff said. North Carolina’s Department of Commerce struck the deal last year to bring the company to Charlotte, offering $388 million in tax incentives through the JDIG program. The enormity of the grant stems from an add-on to a state program that was originally designed to bring companies to poorer areas of the state. Centene was awarded the first “transformational” JDIG grant to build its hub in Charlotte. Apple received the most recent one. “We are excited to have a company like Centene here with this innovation and fore-

sight,” Cooper said. “We need to come up strong for them, too. We need to make sure that Michael gets the welltrained, skilled workforce that he needs to do the job.” Centene is a Fortune 500 company, and its billion-dollar hub project drew incentive offers from states across the country. After weighing the offered packages, Centene selected North Carolina for the hub, promising more than 6,000 high-paying jobs for Charlotte over the next 12 years. Comments by Neidorff at the dedication ceremony with Cooper on Monday emphasized Centene’s corporate commitment to cultural diversity, highlighting that more than 50% of its workforce are people of color and 75% of employees are women. “Charlotte has all the elements of a great city: successful schools, impressive infrastructure, great diversity and tremendous opportunity for upward economic mobility,” Neidorff said. “Centene continues to evolve into a technology company that does health care,” he added. “Our new campus is designed to meet the modern expectations of today’s professionals while serving as a technology hub to help shape the future of health care.” The company says that the lawsuits and subsequent settlements with Ohio and Mississippi stem from services provided by Envolve Pharmacy Solutions Inc., its pharmacy benefits manager subsidiary. Envolve was accused of a practice called “spread pricing” in which the PBM charges the Medicaid program more than they pay the pharmacy for the patient’s drug, and keep the difference as profit. Centene says they have improved transparency to eliminate spread pricing. “We respect the deep and critically important relationships we have with our state partners,” said Brent Layton, Centene’s president of health plans, markets and products in a press release announcing the settlements. “These agreements reflect the significance we place on addressing their concerns and our ongoing commitment to making the delivery of health care local, simple and transparent. Importantly, putting these issues behind us allows us to continue our relentless focus on delivering high-quality outcomes to our members.” The Centene dedication ceremony happened the same day the N.C. Senate released its state budget pro-

posal with tax cuts in it. It limits spending to a 3.45% increase in 2021-22, and 3.65% in 2022-23, far less than Cooper’s proposal of a 12% increase in state spending over two years. “The same governor who is sharply critical of tax relief for the state’s small businesses and mom and pop shops, which comprise 99.6% of businesses here in North Carolina, is going to celebrate this massive pledge of taxpayer money to a company that’s notorious for taking advantage of taxpayers?” said Jon Sanders, senior fellow in regulatory studies at the John Locke Foundation. “It staggers one’s capacity to countenance political hypocrisy.” The Senate’s budget also does not provide funding for Medicaid expansion, an issue that has sharply divided the governor and the legislature when it comes to the budget. Back in May, Centene and its CEO were publicly critical, even threatening to leave the company’s home state of Missouri when it also decided not to expand Medicaid. “As the largest provider of Medicaid in the United States and a Fortune 42 company, I have to ask myself, ‘Why am I in this state?’” Neidorff said at the time to Health Payer Specialist, a health industry trade publication. “This is a state that frowns on this business; what am I doing here?… It’s an embarrassment.” That corporate pressure to expand North Carolina’s Medicaid federal entitlement program, Centene’s primary business, is likely to intensify with such a large presence now in Charlotte. Cooper reinforced his and Centene’s position in his comments Monday. “Another thing Michael would tell you: We need to expand Medicaid. We need to make sure that this works,” Cooper said. “It’s a lay-up, folks. We need everyone out there talking to legislators about this critical moment in time. It’s really a moral issue for a person to be able to afford to see a doctor, and it’s time for that to happen.” Centene is worth an estimated $35 billion. Its billion-dollar Charlotte facility broke ground in August and is on 80 acres in University Research Park. It includes everything from office space to a child care center and an amphitheater. “Looking around here, it’s amazing what a billion dollars can do,” Cooper told the audience gathered at the dedication.

Advocates mark 25th anniversary of N.C. charter schools law by David Bass Carolina Journal News Service

RALEIGH – Twenty-five years ago this week, the Tar Heel State legalized the creation of public charter schools. School choice advocates came together in Raleigh on June 22 to celebrate the milestone and highlight the impact of charter schools on families and students during the last quarter-century. “There is a philosophical war underway right now,” said Senate leader Phil Berger, R-Rockingham, at a press conference. “It’s between bureaucrats and unions on one side who would like to force all children into one educational system controlled by those bureaucrats, and parents and children on the other side who wish to have a say in that child’s education.” Today, more than 8% of N.C. public school students — around 126,000 in total — are enrolled in 200 charter schools located in 65 counties across the state. Demand continues to outpace supply as more than 76,000 names are on the waitlist for charters. Even as traditional public schools in North Carolina experienced the sharpest enrollment declines in decades during the COVID-19 pandemic, charters have seen a 7% enrollment increase. Also this month, North Carolina marked the 10-year anniversary of the action that allowed charter school growth to take off: legislation lifting the 100-school cap. That bill was passed nearly unanimously by both chambers of the General Assembly and signed into law by then-Gov. Bev Perdue. The Department of Public Instruction also announced Tuesday that principals at charter schools will now be eligible to participate in the Principal of the Year selection process. Since 1984, Wells Fargo has financially supported the program in collaboration with DPI to recognize outstanding principals from N.C. public schools. One early beneficiary of the state’s charter school law spoke at the press conference. Tim Taylor is a former student at Arapahoe Charter School, one

of the first charters to open in the state in 1997. Taylor described how the community came together from every walk of life and political and religious persuasion to create the school. Taylor’s story has come full circle with his son now attending Arapahoe Charter. “How do you define freedom in one word? The answer to that is choice,” Taylor said. Other elected officials who spoke at the press conference underscored that charter schools empower families of fewer means to access a better education for their children. “One child in this state because of where they live and the income of their parents should not be denied that opportunity to excel in education that would be available to others,” said House Speaker Tim Moore, R-Cleveland. “Charter schools, as well as many other alternatives, are a key part to providing the opportunity for that equality.” “We live in a society where, by and large, a public school is determined by a zip code,” said State Superintendent of Public Instruction Catherine Truitt. “But charter schools give students and families the opportunity to move past the idea that a zip code must determine where a child attends school.” Moore also pointed out that many

charter schools remained open during COVID-19 when traditional public school classrooms were closing. “The charter schools really stepped up in a lot of ways,” Moore said. This session, lawmakers have passed a bill to open new funding sources and add flexibility to charter schools. Under current law, when a charter school dissolves, all net assets of the school go to the local school administrative unit overseeing the charter. Under House Bill 729, capital-sourced assets would be exempted from that requirement. Another change would be to allow counties to make direct appropriations to charter schools to buy real estate, furniture, school supplies, school technology and similar capital equipment. The bill also requires funding parity between traditional public school students and charter school students: “It is the intent of the General Assembly to ensure that all state funds for public school students attending charter schools are provided in amounts on a basis comparable to funds provided for public school students attending other public school units.” A fourth provision in H.B. 729 allows charters to meet the yearly requirement for instructional days through a combination of in-person and remote instruction.

NASCAR star Kyle Busch tours Humane Society of Charlotte CHARLOTTE – The Humane Society of Charlotte welcomed NASCAR driver Kyle Busch to its shelter June 16 for a tour and dog meet-and-greet prior to the Nashville 250 Xfinity Series race. Mars Petcare and PEDIGREE Foundation pledged to cover the adoption fees for 45 animals at the Humane Society of Charlotte throughout the weekend. The brands teamed up with Busch to raise awareness for pet adoption and support their ambition of ending pet homelessness. Because Busch is a local to the greater Charlotte area, he along with the BETTER CITIES FOR PETS Program and PEDIGREE Foundation selected the Humane Society of Charlotte for the special promotion. While at the 2700 Toomey Avenue shelter, Busch learned about the Humane Society of Charlotte's history, its capital campaign and

“It does not destroy property values,” he said. “It does not destroy the character of neighborhoods. It's just makes our community a lot more inclusive.” South Charlotte representatives Ed Driggs and Tariq Bokhari were among those opposing the plan.

new, under-construction Animal Resource Center. Busch will continue to raise awareness on pet homelessness by "hosting" life-size cutouts of adoptable dogs on top of his pit box and will debut a new paint scheme on his No.18 Toyota Camry featuring adoptable dogs along with the PEDIGREE® brand and PEDIGREE Foundation logos. "The Humane Society of Charlotte was honored to welcome Kyle to the shelter and we are thankful to be part of this exciting race weekend with Mars Petcare and Pedigree Foundation," said Donna Stucker, HSC VP of Philanthropy. "Having adoption fees waived for some of our animals is a great incentive to raise much-needed awareness for animals waiting to find their new homes. Those interested in adopting from the Humane Society of Charlotte should visit humanecharlotte.org/adoption and request an adoption appointment to meet any dog or cat of their choice.

Driggs said the main source of contention among council and the community involved the elimination of single-family neighborhoods. He also said the plan's goal of 10-minute neighborhoods is not possible. “In many areas of Charlotte, it would destroy community fabric and not even be desirable,” Driggs said.

ZaNia said she was inspired to start Z Feeds Go-Go Bags after her own experience being homeless. She spent her childhood in a shelter with her grandmother, and back and forth between a foster family and the Salvation Army Center of Hope shelter for women and children. “I knew how it felt to not have food and to not be able to go out and get food,” ZaNia said. But people need more than just food to survive, ZaNia said, they also need words of encouragement. That’s why she decided to include uplifting and inspiring reading material in the bags – something she wishes she had growing up. “That would have brightened my day to know that better days are coming and to not give up,” ZaNia said. “God can help you get through what you’re doing. There’s a page you can read everyday to better understand what you’re going through and how God is

But Davis did state her disdain on a couple of occasions about the marketing of the dealership. “I'm well aware that we can not dictate what you name your dealership,” she told the development team during the June 22 public hearing, “but again, I just am not happy that every car dealership that comes to Pineville wants to be South Charlotte.”

City staff will engage with the community in mapping the land use policies within the plan and create a policy map. The map will be voted on by council to provide guidance on land use and public investment decisions and the zoning districts within the new Unified Development Ordinance. Visit cltfuture2040.com to learn more about the plan.

Steve Porter, who represented Subaru during the rezoning, told Davis that his team consulted with its marketing company about the name. “Like everything being down there the way it is with the other stores listed as Mazda, Cadillac, Mercedes – all the different ones being South Charlotte – and with the Google searches and different things for name search, we just felt best with Subaru South Charlotte,” Porter said.

going to help you get through it.” ZaNia now lives in the University City area with her adoptive family and will be in ninth grade at Mountain Island Day Community Charter in the fall. She said her experiences being homeless taught her to be compassionate, hardworking and humble, and to be a leader from a young age. She hopes her story sparks others to start their own community efforts. “Having an organization is fun – it’s not boring,” ZaNia said. “Helping others is fun and it makes me feel good inside to know that I’m helping and making a difference in the world.” “Sometimes, I see the children take the bags and it makes me really happy to see that they’re happy,” she added. “It makes my heart happy.”

Nonprofit envisions one-stop legal aid center CHARLOTTE – The Charlotte Center for Legal Advocacy is preparing to improve its ability to provide dignified, confidential, convenient service when it moves into a new building later this fall. Once renovations are complete, the building, located at 5535 Albemarle Road, will triple the square footage of its current Elizabeth Avenue facilities, consolidating all its services under one roof. The end result will be a one-stop legal aid center for those in need of access to legal support around safety, security, stability and health. Charlotte Center for Legal Advo-

cacy will begin providing services at the new location December 2021. “The critical need for our ser-

vices is overwhelming,” Executive Director Ken Schorr said. “While our staff does an amazing job of

meeting that demand, they are working out of multiple, inadequate, outdated physical spaces and our clients deserve better. In addition to serving more families, our new home will increase our capacity for advocacy, innovation and collaboration.” For more than 50 years, Charlotte Center for Legal Advocacy has worked to ensure fairness, access to justice, and to help struggling families find stability and avoid falling into poverty. Demand for its services has grown steadily since 2000. While Charlotte Center for Le-

gal Advocacy has risen to meet the challenge of a growing population with urgent and emerging needs, the nonprofit says its impact is limited by physical space. The organization and its partner, Legal Aid of North Carolina, rent three additional buildings to accommodate existing staff. Charlotte Center for Legal Advocacy’s new building, and establishment of a program endowment, will allow for staff and volunteers to grow and respond quickly to the changing needs of the community. see LEGAL, Page 3B

CHARLOTTE – Dr. Scott Rissmiller, executive vice president and chief physician executive for Atrium Health, has been named one of Modern Healthcare’s Top 50 Most Influential Clinical Executives of 2021. The awards honor people in health care who are considered by peers and senior editors of the magazine to be paving the way to better health. The list includes the likes of Dr. Anthony Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases and Dr. Rochelle Walensky, director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. “My selection is truly a reflection of the great work and expertise of the Atrium Health physicians Rissmiller and other medical professionals who care for our patients each day,” Rissmiller said. “Together, we have made Atrium Health an environment where we can provide health, hope and healing for all who walk through our doors.” During the pandemic, Rissmiller assembled and oversaw a team of operational and medical experts to create the Atrium Health Hospital at Home – a virtual hospital created in less than three weeks to house COVID-19 patients. The initiative lowered the chances of the virus spreading by keeping patients out of emergency departments and allowing them to remain in their homes for observation or inpatient treatment and recovery. This also conserved hospital space, staff resources and personal protective equipment. He also played an integral role in the creation of mass vaccination sites, leveraging unique and innovative public-private partnerships to get more people vaccinated see RISSMILLER, Page 2B

Business man seeks fresh start with cleaning franchise by Karie Simmons karie@cmgweekly.com

MINT HILL – After more than 30 years in the banking and financial service industry, Mint Hill resident David Houck decided to switch professional gears and invest in himself by opening North Carolina’s first Home Clean Heroes. “It was time in my career to explore different options and take my career path in my hands,” Houck said, crediting his wife for the encouragement. “She’s the one who pushed me out of the nest.”

Founded in 2017, the Virginia Beachbased residential cleaning business has set itself apart by providing a tech-savvy approach to the $6 billion cleaning segment, utilizing proprietary technology for operational efficiency including field management software, in-vehicle GPS and data tracking. The brand’s commitment to providing convenient, customizable and trustworthy home cleaning services has earned recognition from Franchise Gator as one of the fastest growing franchises and as a top emerging franchise of 2021, and by Franchise Connect Magazine as one of the top 100 home service

stability and to be their own boss. The brand’s home office handles all the leads, marketing and advertising, freeing up the local owners to run the day-to-day. “So you’re going into business for yourself but not by yourself because you have this support system behind you,” Delatte said. Houck chose Home Clean Heroes for its buttoned up business model and the necessary service it will provide the area’s growing real estate market. “There’s not a detail they have not addressed,” Houck said of the franchise. “It’s really a paint by numbers business. Follow it and make it your own, put your personality into it and work hard and enjoy it.” Houck conducts all the in-home estimates for new clients himself, during which he learns their specific needs and makes note of hot spots in the home like high-touch surfaces and high-traffic areas. Home Clean Heroes uses eco-friendly products with the exception of a Lysol-based cleaner used to sanitize and does not do laundry or wash dishes. Every clients gets their

own two-person team of professional grime-fighters who have passed a background check and are bonded, insured and thoroughly trained. They also get a set of color-coded microfiber towels so there is no cross contamination between rooms or between houses. Houck understands that people are busy between work, spending time with family, exploring the area and putting money back into our local economy, and the last thing they want to do is spend their time cleaning. That’s where he says Home Clean Heroes comes in. “Our number one promise is to defend our customers’ free time so they can spend it how they want to spend it,” Houck said. He also hopes to provide a positive impact on the community through Home Clean Heroes’ “Cleaning for a Reason” program by offering women undergoing chemotherapy treatment one complimentary cleaning service. “It just makes them feel a little bit better,” Houck said.

Vein problems like spider veins and varicose veins affect millions of men across the United States. At the risk of stereotyping an entire gender, most men don’t spend much time talking about health problems. Men tend to downplay symptoms, and it’s not uncommon for men to delay going to a doctor. When men do seek medical attention they’re often reluctant to ask about “minor” problems like varicose vein, spider veins, and leg swelling. Some men consider it “unmanly” to report varicose vein pain.

What options do men have?

The great news about vein problems is there’s a wide range of low-risk, procedural (and non-procedural) treatments that can help. Quite often the results are dramatic, eliminating pesky symptoms and improving the appearance of the legs. Advancements in medical technology have allowed vein procedures to become “walk-in, walk-out”. Vein procedures are now routinely performed in the doctor’s office, and no longer require a trip to the hospital or a surgery center. Recovery from vein procedures is surprisingly quick, and many people return to work the next day. At Vascular Solutions, about 40% of patients are men. We offer a variety of treatments for vein conditions. Dr. Ford and his team treat the full spectrum of leg vein problems. If you’re a man suffering from heavy, achy legs, or if you’d like to improve the appearance of your legs, contact us today. Read more about men with veins at www.vasc-solutions.com/blog

This will create a legal campus that improves assistance and access for clients and continues both organizations’
