“What else should I look for in a health care provider?”
COVER STORY
Along with high ratings from independent sources, look at what the health care provider has to offer in the way of best practices, conveniences and services. Look for a full-service health care provider who offers: Easy Access to Care: • Same-day appointment availability • Urgent care access at the same co-pay as an office visit and with no pre-authorization needed • Flexibility to be seen near work or home • 24-Hour telephone access to a Registered Nurse advice line • Onsite lab and digital X-ray • Affiliations with award-winning hospitals • Fully credentialed specialty physician network Up-to-Date Technology and Practices: • An Electronic Medical Record (EMR) system connecting patient, physician, urgent care, hospital and other services • Online secure patient portal to communicate with physicians and the office and make your own appointments
CHOOSE WELL. CHOOSE MemorialCare Medical Group MemorialCare Medical Group’s San Juan Capistrano office was recently relocated to the beautiful new San Juan Health Center at 31001 Rancho Viejo Road, Suite 200 near Marbella Plaza. The brand new 25,000 square-foot office offers internal medicine, family medicine and pediatrics and serves as a “one-stop-shop” for the families in San Juan Capistrano and its surrounding communities. Lab, digital imaging services, and a Coumadin Clinic are available onsite. “With San Juan Capistrano’s and the area’s continued growth, it was imperative for us to relocate to a new state-of-the-art facility that meets the health care needs of the community,” says George Karapetian, MD, medical director of MemorialCare Medical Group-San Juan Capistrano. “With our dedicated team of medical professionals and onsite lab and imaging services, we can efficiently and effectively deliver high quality health care to local residents.” Fall is when many companies hold open enrollment and Medicare Annual Election Period starts October 15 and runs through December 7. This is the optimal time to choose your doctor and to consider a health plan that includes MemorialCare Medical Group.
MEMORIALCARE MEDICAL GROUP 10 SEPTEMBER 2015
THELOCALDISHMAGAZINE.COM
Choose Well, Choose MemorialCare Medical Group Choosing the right doctor is one of the most important healthcare decisions you will make. The quality of health care you receive can depend largely on the doctor you choose. So how do you go about choosing the right doctor for you? Take into account the following to make the most informed decision for you and your family: “They all say they’re good doctors, so how do I know who is the best for me?” As with anything new, you should research and ask questions about the doctor you’re considering. Recommendations from family and friends are a good place to start. For objective factbased information, look to unbiased sources. Independent, third-party organizations such as Integrated Healthcare Association (IHA) and the Office of the Patient Advocate (OPA) of California, among others, routinely survey patients, publishing service and quality of care ratings on physicians and physician groups. Visit their websites to investigate the scores and grades given to the physicians.
• Access to medical records and test results through the online patient portal • Electronic transmission of prescriptions to pharmacies The MemorialCare Medical Group Difference MemorialCare Medical Group doctors take time with you and listen to you while offering all of the services and conveniences you should expect from your provider.

HAPPENINGS Be part of a dynamic race team working together to build and test the fastest (and safest) speed machines on the planet, using Hot Wheels die-cast cars to experiment and play. This behind-thescenes look at the thrilling world of racing investigates the scientific process for designing super-fast cars and helps families who have the need for speed understand how it is achieved. “Generations of children have enjoyed the thrill and speed of racing with Hot Wheels, and this new interactive exhibit now brings families together to learn what brings racing to life in a fun and memorable way,” shares Julie Freeland, Senior Director, Global Live Events & Attractions, Mattel.
Race To
Discovery Cube Orange County's
Children and Families will love the Pit Stop Challenge in which they can race the clock - and their family and friends - to change tires and refuel the car. A 6-lane downhill speed track, booster power track, adjustable angles track, and timing track are just a few of the ways visitors will be able to test their theories regarding the science of racing and cause and effect. Real race car parts, authentic artifacts, and captivating memorabilia will round out the experience.
Newest Exhibit All roads lead to Santa Ana as Discovery Cube Orange County opens Hot Wheels™: Race to Win™. This new family exhibit will get you revved up with immersive activities for three generations of Hot Wheels® fans. Hot Wheels: Race to Win debuts on September 19, 2015 and the pit stop continues through January 3, 2016.
Introduced by Mattel in 1968, the "tricked-out" toy cars have come a long way (both in the die-cast and life-size varieties). More than 800 models and 11,000 variations of Hot Wheels cars have been created and more than 4 billion Hot Wheels diecast cars have been sold. Don’t miss the opportunity to push the limits of your imagination and learn about the world of racing in this all-new exhibit.

ASK DR. JULIE? JULIE A. DAVIS, MA, PsyD
Licensed Clinical Psychologist #24689 Q: I have been going through a divorce for the past year; my family and friends think I am depressed. Will the depression pass after the divorce is over, or should I get some help like my friends and family keep asking me to do? A: Divorce is rated the 2nd most stressful life event following the death of a spouse. It is common to suffer from depression during and after a divorce. Depression is a medical condition and needs to be assessed by your medical doctor or mental health specialist.

FOOD & FUN The City of Dana Point continues to do its part to support local charities. This year, a portion of the proceeds from the event will benefit the Dana Point 5th Regiment Marines Support Group, the American Cancer Society's Relay for Life and The VFW (Veterans of Foreign War). The Dana Point State BBQ Championship will also kick-off the holiday toy collection effort for Toys for Tots. Attendees are encouraged to bring an unwrapped toy to the BBQ to help underprivileged children this holiday season. The City of Dana Point State Barbeque Championship serves as the West Coast's biggest BBQ competition, with over 100 of the top teams from California, Oregon, Utah, Nevada, and Arizona competing for a slice of $30,000 in prize money. USA Today boasts that this competition is “one of the 6 must-attend BBQ events in the nation.” With reputation and cash on the line, patrons are sure to reap the delicious benefits of this heated rivalry. Start your engines BBQ enthusiasts, and be there to witness an epic battle in the categories of chicken, ribs, brisket, and pork. Not to mention, a special “Dessert” category is now part of the competition to sweeten your culinary experience. A wide variety of beer stands will be positioned throughout the venue with beer by the glass served for just $6. Beer sampling opportunities will also be available in the Beer Festival area where enthusiasts can choose between the finest ales, lagers and stouts to wash down all of the BBQ competitors’ savory creations. Ask for the brewmaster’s recommendations to create a perfect pairing for the sweet, spicy and smoky meats available at the competition. Or, throw caution to the wind and conjure up your own coupling of food and drink to satisfy your individual penchant. If you’re feeling a little weighty after all those barbeque tasters and ales, live musical entertainment will allow you to dance off all of those extra calories consumed at the festival. Stroll through the Vendor Village, or let your little ones explore the many kid-friendly activities and attractions. Admission as always is free. You can purchase full plates of food directly from a variety of vendors or you may opt for $2 samples, if you’d prefer to fill your belly nibbling on a host of BBQ delights. If you are the wizard of your backyard grill, then it's time for you to head down to Dana Point and meet your masters. The 4th Annual City of Dana Point State Barbeque Championships returns October 3 to beautiful Sea Terrace Park. This event will offer melt-in-your-mouth delights with a smorgasbord of meats barbequed to perfection. BBQ teams will spend tremendous time preparing and creating dishes that will whet your appetite and satisfy your palate. Fans of hops and barley will be happy to know they can quench their thirst at the returning Beer Festival, a special section full of craft beers from independent breweries.
WHEN & WHERE » 36 SEPTEMBER 2015

Don’t worry; lessons are provided and within seconds you will be expressing your Kefi with shouts of “Opa!” The Saint Basil dance troupe will also perform traditional dances in costume representing different regions of Greece. This year’s exhibits will showcase costumed dolls from the many areas of Greece as well as a chance to win some great raffle prizes. For those interested in art, iconographer Father Michael Courey will unveil and discuss two Byzantine icons to be used for Saint Basil’s Church. These icons were recently featured at the Getty Museum in Los Angeles as part of his lecture and demonstration. Festival hours are 5 p.m. to 10 p.m. on Friday, 11 a.m. to 11 p.m. on Saturday, and 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. on Sunday. Admission and parking are free. Saint Basil’s Church is located at 27129 Calle Arroyo, near the 74 Ortega Highway exit in San Juan Capistrano. For more information on the Greek Festival, please visit sjcgreekfest.org.
