Meet Noelle K. McIntyre, a third-generation South Floridian, mompreneur and philanthropist. For more than a decade, this True Floridian has been moving South Florida real estate—and life—forward.

South Florida connection runs deep.

As the daughter of a well-known waterfront home builder and granddaughter of a construction materials business owner, Noelle inherited more than a love for all South Florida has to offer: She gained a passion for building, expanding and helping others experience the lifestyle.

These experiences inspired her to establish True Floridian Realty over 12 years ago.

Today the boutique real estate brokerage celebrates an outstanding reputation and has nearly 40 associates serving South Florida’s tri-county area and Southwest Florida. The team’s three specialized groups support commercial real estate development, homes for local heroes, and homes for families with pets.

But, it’s work beyond the transactions for which Noelle is most deeply proud.

Dedication over a decade+

Noelle believes real estate is about more than buying and selling homes. It’s why she created a give-back program for every qualifying transaction the team closes.

To date, True Floridian Realty has contributed over $200,000 to local businesses and nonprofits. Yet, their community connection expands beyond that.

“We know realty and real life.”

As realtors, homeowners, husbands and wives, fathers and mothers, daughters and sons, community leaders, business owners, and more, True Floridian Realty associates genuinely care about what their clients care about.

“Homes symbolize our livelihoods,” she said. “They reflect our choices, care for our loved ones, and help launch dreams. They’re full of the real life.”

“Real life” is the centerpiece of the team’s new campaign, which celebrates what it means to know realty and real life: from first-time homebuyers, sellers and flippers, to first love, loss, family expansions, business dreams, and more.

So, what is real life for Noelle?

Like many True Floridians, Noelle’s memories include early morning rides to the beach or pier to go fishing with her dad. She recalls the excitement of rushing to the shoreline to feel the warm ocean water pour over her toes or baiting up the line anticipating that first bite.

Today, she remains infinitely connected to the South Florida waterfronts, enjoying early morning beach walks, beach cleanups with her husband and 6-year-old son, or simply waiting for a reel to scream.

“I’m in my 40s now, so when I have quiet moments, early mornings, or carefree beach days, they make me grateful to be a True Floridian,” she said. “I am so incredibly blessed to offer camaraderie and expertise to locals and transplants as we help bring their dreams to life. That’s real life.”

She paused and added, “Plus, I learned early on how healing the beach can be. You can sit in the sand and soak it all in, or in the same spot, sit there and let it all out. It’s a lifeboat and a launching pad, all at once. That’s real life, too and why I cherish calling this place home.”

Why I Give: Mike and Pam McCarthy with granddaughters Ellis and Nora

A commercial real estate executive, Mike McCarthy has plenty of experience in development. These days, as the chair of the Baptist Health Foundation council at Bethesda Hospital, he’s set his sights on helping the facility develop its Emergency Department. “I think emergency rooms are really important,” he says. “I particularly like understanding what’s needed, and then seeing improvements take shape. It’s challenging, but rewarding.”

Emergency care has a special significance to Mike and Pam, who often enjoy visits from their grandchildren, including Ellis and Nora. “Something can always happen,” says Mike. “You’re doing this not just for yourself, not just for the good of the community, but also for them.”

Mike is enthusiastic about Bethesda Hospital’s affiliation with Baptist Health. “The quality they’re providing is pretty breathtaking,” he says. “I had an experience with Miami Cancer Institute, and was really blown away at how good they were. It’s comforting to know everybody involved is at the top of their game.”

ORTHOPAEDIC SURGERY ASSOCIATES, INC

For head-to-toe orthopaedic care for teens to seniors; athletes to weekend warriors, patients who have experienced failed surgeries elsewhere and those seeking the latest techniques in minimally invasive procedures, the board- certified and fellowship-trained team of physicians at Orthopaedic Surgery Associates have been providing world-class care for more than 40 years.

With prestigious training from the nation’s top medical institutions, the collective areas of the physicians’ expertise include hand, knee, hip, spine, and sports medicine. The comprehensive scope of services includes comprehensive evaluation and testing procedures; total knee, hip and shoulder joint replacement, spinal surgery, arthroscopic knee surgery; repair and reconstruction for torn knee ligaments and cartilage; hand and wrist surgery and a full scope of physical and occupational rehabilitation and pain management ancillary services.

One of the newest and highly requested procedures is the minimally invasive spinal procedure, kyphoplasty, which is used to treat back pain from compression fractures, osteoporosis or trauma. It is done under local anesthesia in the office, using the precision C-arm computer navigation device and allows patients to get back to their active lives within days.

With an expert physician staff including two orthopaedic sports surgeons, two total joint reconstruction surgeons, two hand surgeons, a spine surgeon, a podiatrist and full on-site x-ray and rehabilitation services, patients can conveniently schedule appointments to see their desired specialist within a few miles of each other at either OSA’s Boca Raton, Boynton Beach office, and their new West Boynton office location at 9868 State Road 7, Suite 225, Boynton Beach, FL 33472..

Alan J. Bauman, MD, ABHRS, IAHRS, FISHRS

SPECIALTIES: Hair Transplant and Hair Loss Treatments

UNDERGRADUATE EDUCATION: B.S., Psychobiology, University of California

MEDICAL TRAINING: M.D., w/Cor Et Manus Award, New York Medical College

FELLOWSHIP: Hair Transplantation, Eastwood Medical, Garden City, N.Y.

RESIDENCY: Surgery, Mt. Sinai Medical Center and Beth Israel Medical Center, New York City

Dr. Alan Bauman changes lives, one hair follicle at a time. Since opening Bauman Medical in 1997, he has transformed the appearance of more than 33,000 men and women and performed more than 12,000 hair transplant procedures. His patient base is equally split between men and women, although their hair loss patterns and causes differ. “Instead of seeing the receding hairline men often experience as they get older, with thinning in the crown, women experience diffuse thinning in the top and front, typically caused by stress, heredity, childbirth, menopause or other medical issues,” Dr. Bauman says.

A new, minimally invasive hair transplant procedure, VIP|FUE™ No-Shave Hair Transplant offers patients all the advantages of traditional minimally invasive FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction), including no staples, no stitches, no linear scars, and a more comfortable and less restricted downtime when compared to outdated invasive linear FUT “strip” harvesting. The addition of a new state-of-the-art extraction tool and advanced microsurgical techniques for VIP|FUE™ involves extracting hair follicles directly from the donor area without trimming or shaving any hair, providing a HUGE bonus for patients looking to discreetly treat their hair loss, because there’s NO telltale change to their hairstyle.

TransEpidermal Delivery (TED) is another breakthrough non-invasive, needle-free, pain-free procedure offered to quickly and easily treat hair shedding, hair loss and thinning utilizing lowfrequency ultrasonic sound waves and air pressure to drive a proprietary topical hair growth formula deep into the scalp, without the need for local anesthesia.

B.A. with Distinction, Cornell University, NY

MEDICAL TRAINING: New York University School of Medicine

RESIDENCY AND FELLOWSHIP: General and Plastic Surgery Residencies, Wound Healing and Microsurgery Fellowship, New York University Medical Center, Institute of Reconstructive Plastic Surgery; Manhattan Eye, Ear and Throat Hospital

Board-certified in general and plastic surgery, Dr. Rafael C. Cabrera has been practicing plastic and reconstructive surgery in Boca Raton for more than two decades. He is on staff exclusively at Boca Raton Regional Hospital and is renowned for the natural looking results he achieves for his patients. Cabrera attributes using an array of tools and techniques to regain a more youthful appearance. “No chipmunk cheeks or duck lips are allowed in my practice. Over-lasering the face or over-filling the cheeks and lips to hide every last wrinkle is not flattering. Ultimately, patients rely on my expertise, esthetic judgment and integrity,” he assures.

Facelifts are among the most requested procedures Cabrera performs and are an effective way to achieve a refreshed and renewed appearance. He explains the intricate procedure he has perfected over decades in simple terms: A good facelift means you look beautifully natural without anyone knowing you’ve had work done. “Tightening the muscle layer and ligaments are often necessary to get a more youthful contour. Adding volume with natural tissue, like your own fat and stem cells, will augment and rejuvenate your face by replacing facial deflation associated with aging,” he says.

Men are equally as interested in aging gracefully and benefit from Cabrera’s expertise. “Since men now work longer, retire at an older age and can maintain muscle mass by exercising, it is important to have their faces match their bodies. Droopy eyes and sagging necks are in stark contrast from their otherwise sharp, on-the-ball appearances and physiques. Eye and neck procedures can greatly improve their appearance,” Cabrera explains.

RESIDENCY: Baylor College of Medicine, Obstetrics & Gynecology, Texas Medical Center, Houston; Awarded “Special Resident in Minimally Invasive Surgery”

FELLOWSHIP: Minimally invasive gynecologic surgery, University of Louisville, Kentucky, under world-renowned gynecologic surgeon, Resad Pasic, MD, PhD.

Dr. Thomas Lang became an OB/GYN because he wanted to answer women’s questions, relieve their symptoms and solve their problems. He also became one of only two fellowship- trained physicians specializing in minimally invasive GYN surgery in Palm Beach County. He prides himself on performing minimally invasive procedures using the smallest, least amount of ports possible with a cosmetic approach to the ports’ placement.

Dr. Lang treats a variety of conditions from uterine bleeding to sexual dysfunction, fibroids and pelvic pain. His Nurse Practitioner, Jennifer Iorio lends her hormone therapy to the practice. His patients range in age from the teens to women well into their 90’s. From puberty to prenatal care to delivery, and all the way to menopause and beyond, he listens to his patients and guides them on a journey of holistic wellbeing each step of the way. Pregnant women are not the only ones with that special “glow,” as Dr. Lang is also passionate about treating all patients’ skin care needs.

“I always sit with the patient in my office to talk and get to know one another before entering the exam room, where they don’t experience pain with my gentle exams. I want them to be comfortable to remain my patient, so I can take care of all their lifelong healthcare needs,” he says.

FELLOWSHIP: Rothman Institute at Jefferson University, Sports Medicine Surgery

Dr. Charlton Stucken is a Double Board-Certified Orthopaedic Surgeon specializing in Sports Medicine and Shoulder surgery. Stucken trained with world-renowned surgeons in prestigious programs in Boston and Philadelphia, and he is now joining the Hospital for Special Surgery Florida. Dr. Stucken is joining the Sports and Shoulder Division, anchored by Drs. David Altchek, Ryan Simovitch, and James Carr.

“Many of my patients have already experienced failed surgery elsewhere, and are often reluctant to undergo a corrective revision procedure, but these are some of my best outcomes: taking people who are at their worst and giving them their life and lifestyle back. The athletes whom I care for vary from high-school and collegiate athletes to weekend warriors to seniors looking to stay active.”

“While it may be intimidating to visit a surgeon’s office, most knee and shoulder pain can be resolved with non-operative treatment and guidance. For those patients that do need surgery, our newer techniques such as computer navigation allow faster recovery with minimally invasive surgery. The same personalized and innovative treatments that we use on our professional athletes I also recommend for the rest of my patients,” Stucken explains.

“My goal is that patients choose my practice for their surgical care, knowing that I am guided by the belief in providing the most exceptional care, without exception.”

As a Harvard-trained, board-certified anesthesiologist and board-certified pain management physician, Dr. Jonathan Kamerlink provides treatment for patients suffering from chronic pain, spinal conditions, and spinal deformities.

Dr. Kamerlink’s superior training and passion for ongoing research, combined with his down-toearth demeanor and personalized patient care has made him a valuable member of the Florida Spine Associates’ team.

“My ultimate goal is to enhance patients’ quality of life,” he explains. “If I can get patients back to doing what they love—being with their friends and family and enjoying activities without feeling debilitated—I have succeeded. There are no quick fixes or promises of cures for pain. Many times, patients wait until their pain is unrelenting and interfering with their daily activities rather than seeking my help when needed.

“I want my patients to partner with me in their overall health to achieve the optimum results. They need to talk to me about their lifestyle activity, exercise and diet regimen as well as their pain,” he adds. “This is where our relationship begins.”

Double board-certified physician Dr. Natalia Hegedosh’s love of medicine began as a young woman studying in the Ukraine. At the age of 23 she graduated medical school, having treated a broad range of patients in rehabilitation centers to hospital emergency rooms; the injured, the poor, the homeless and mentally ill.

“I came to the United States and established my Family Medicine practice, with interest in treating infants to geriatrics. It was an extremely rewarding profession. My passion for aesthetic medicine and cosmetology later became the foundation for my latest venture, Elite Med Spa in Boca Raton, where I provide patients with the latest techniques and procedures to look and feel their best. From diet and weight loss to non-surgical face lifts, RF micro-needling and Botox, there are many options I offer my patients. I also educate people on the importance of genetic testing, which looks at a patient’s specific genes to disclose vital information about their health,” Dr. Hegedosh explains.

Skin care holds a special place in Dr. Hegedosh’s practice, born out of a tragedy she experienced as a victim of Chernobyl in the Ukraine, where she and her family suffered skin cancer as a result. She spent 15 years developing a special cream and skin care line that has evolved into various luxurious skin care products and creams under the label of Dr. Star, (her middle name) New Skin Secrets.

An avid researcher, Dr. Hegedosh also dedicates her time and expertise as a Principal Investigator/SubInvestigator for various clinical research studies on such topics as general medicine, depression, bi-polar disorder, and women’s health.

Eidelson has authored three books used worldwide as training manuals, featuring outcome studies that determine the most effective treatments for cervical and lumbar spine problems.

In 2000 he founded SpineUniverse.com—the largest website focused on spinal condition education in the world with more than 20 million views.

Dr. Caitlin Prickett is revolutionizing the primary care physician relationship with her concierge internal medicine practice in Boca Raton. “I’m going above and beyond general primary care. Concierge Medicine of Boca Raton encompasses the entire aspect of patient care. I practice wholebody medicine, not just sick medicine. I spend time with patients and actually listen to their concerns and health goals - this is what sets me apart from your typical primary care physician. The beauty of concierge medicine is that we have the time to spend with one another. We can sit down and discuss a full personal medical history and family medical history evaluation; this gives us an idea as to what a patient is at risk for in the future. This way, we can take action now to prevent disease, or at least early detect it,” she explains.

Dr. Prickett holds her board certification from the American Board of Internal Medicine. Her concierge practice offers true concierge medicine with unlimited appointments, guaranteed sameday and next-day visits, and 24/7 direct access via phone, text and email, in addition to innovative testing such as early-cancer detection testing, whole-body MRIs and genetic testing.

“I do a great deal of advocation and coordination of care for my concierge patients, as I understand that it can be very difficult navigating the health care system. My advice to everyone is to invest in your health now for the future. It’s much easier to prevent disease and stay on top of your health as opposed to chasing your health once you are sick. The best way to do this is to have an action plan. I personalize health and wellness plans for every single one of my patients. All in all, I am their partner in health,” she says.
