Statesboro Herald readers voted Larry G. Hubbard, DDS as Statesboro’s best dentist for the sixth time in 2016. Dr. Hubbard and his team emphasize a nopain dental experience for their patients in a sensitive and informative environment. They treat their patients with kindness, honesty and also with highly personalized care with unhurried appointments. Even more important than their state-of-the-art treatment is a wonderful patient care team. “From our gentle hygienists and caring dental assistants, to our friendly front desk staff, we are proud of the people who make up our team. Not only are they skilled professionals, but they are warm, caring people who will go all out to make you feel at home, welcome and comfortable in our office, said Dr. Hubbard. “Our staff and patients are our key to success. Thanks to everyone who voted for us again this year.”

The Best Burger in the Boro goes to Bites. Owners Ramy and Carmen Masry opened Bites with the idea of a simple menu of fresh items. The best part is everything is prepped fresh daily - from the burgers and chicken to the fries and chips! It’s a small, friendly space where everything is made to order. They have been serving for almost two years now and have seen a big increase in customers. With the space being limited, they have added a full service bar and also do a lot of to-go orders to help people in a rush. However, the work behind the scenes in prepping and preparing everything fresh is why customers voted Bites Burgers as the Best Burger in the Boro.

The voters selected Clark Medical Group, LLC as the ‘Best of the Boro’ in the Best Healthcare Provider category as a result of the patient centered care provided at the practice, where the patient - doctor relationship determines treatment outcomes and patient satisfaction with his / her care. “I believe what sets us apart is the quality care provided by a dedicated support staff and physicians, where the focus is on administering the best medical care to each patient throughout their time spent at the practice. In addition, our patient-centered care extends beyond the established practice hours, with physician availability during off hours to ensure required medical support is provided to each patient”, said Dr Aaron T. Clark. “Our practice excels by virtue of us being a family, from reception to the clinical staff. As a family, we treat our patients and work as one unit to ensure our patients get the best treatment possible,” said Lisa White, Office Manager. Our goal is to provide the highest level of medical care and customer service to ensure that each of our patients continues to benefit by living a healthy life.

It is no surprise the Ogeechee Area Hospice was named Best of the Boro. According to Linda Upchurch, Executive Director, Ogeechee Area Hospice is your only local, community-based not-for-profit hospice agency, meaning all revenue is returned to patient care, and into agency-sponsored community programs. “We started in 1994 with home hospice care, and now also have a state-of-the-art 25-bed inpatient facility. There, patients and families are afforded around-theclock care for varying levels of needs. Many people don’t realize, however, that we also serve patients in assisted living and long-term care facilities – anywhere they call home. No matter where we serve, we have a deep commitment to our patients, families and communities, focusing on quality of life at the endof-life. Our staff are experts in providing symptom management and bereavement support which results in peace, dignity and comfort for patients and families alike. At home or at our inpatient center, our expert team of nurses, chaplains, social workers, CNAs, bereavement counselors and volunteers are here to serve. Just remember to ask for us by name.”

Lee, Hill and Johnston has been recognized as the Best Insurance Agency in the Best of the Boro contest for ten consecutive years, so it was no surprise to John Lee when the firm earned Best of the Boro honors in 2016. “We’ve got a great staff,” he said. “We have more than 200 years of experience in property and casualty insurance and that makes a difference in understanding the needs of our clients and getting them the products they need.” Lee said the agency understands that when people take out insurance, they are placing their trust in you and that you will be there to help when they need help. “We’re lucky,” Lee said. “We have a staff that values our customers, gives solid advice and has a lot of experience in solving problems. They are very knowledgeable and maybe that’s what sets us apart in the eyes of the folks who have voted us Best in the Boro so many times.” Since Joe Johnston founded the firm in 1963, Lee said the commitment to customer service has had top priority. “We do what’s right for our customers,” Lee said. “We’re just going to keep doing what we’re doing and I guess as long as stay focused on our customers, they’ll keep voting us Best in the Boro.”

Voters selected Family Internal Medicine as the Best Internal Medicine Doctor in the Boro again this year. Dr. Sergo Dalsania and his staff are known for their excellent patient care. There are many reasons they can be considered the best by our readers. “I believe our distinguishing qualities include providing high-quality health care and providing high-quality customer service to go along with it,” Dr. Dalsania said. “Primary care is very important for the appropriate delivery of healthcare to our community. Patients really value their physician’s office.” Dr. Delsania said his staff respects the needs of each patient and that begins the moment a patient enters the practice on Fair Road, near the Bypass. “We are very fortunate to have excellent staff members that fully engage our patients with this philosophy,” he said. “And besides, we have fun! Our loyal patients make it enjoyable for us and for this we are truly blessed and thankful.”

Rhonda Busby has 27 years of experience in the mortgage lending industry and worked with hundreds of satisfied customers through the years. Still, when she learned she was selected as Best of the Boro for 2016, she was surprised. “I was humbled and surprised,” she said. “I’ve worked very hard to do right by my clients and it’s an honor to be recognized with Best of the Boro.” Working as Homestar Financial Corporation out of her office on North College Street, Busby said her “customers know I’ll do what’s best for them.” “I treat every client like they are my only client,” Busby said. “And when I’m working with them, they know I will make them feel as comfortable as possible with the process.” Busby pointed to the changes in lending rules since the housing crisis as an example of how she helps her clients. “The rules have changed so much, that if you got a mortgage a few years ago, the process is entirely different,” she said. “I really pride myself on being sort of like a teacher with my clients and then working with them to ensure the pieces come together.”

After earning Best of the Boro honors in 2015 as Best Moving Company, Roosevelt Cone said Rosie and Son had a chance to win again in 2016 “as long as we treat people right.” Cone and the company he runs with his dad Rosie Cone did “treat people right,” and earned Best of the Boro for 2016, too. “I’m very humbled and thankful for the honor,” Roosevelt Cone said. “We treat our customers like family. We know moving can be a very stressful time, so we make them laugh a little and let them know not to worry.” Cone said he believes one of the keys to their success is their commitment “to be up front with the costs and process with our customers. We have no hidden fees and no extra costs to surprise them.” As more people put their faith in Rosie and Son, Cone said the company has grown. “We’ve gone from a staff of three to six and added another truck,” he said. “We’re blessed to have a lot of repeat customers who like our service.” And for 2017? “Same as last year, just keep treating our customers right and I think we’ll have a shot at Best of the Boro again.”

A Portal High School graduate who now is a sergeant with the Bulloch County Sheriff’s Office, Noel Brown earned his first Best of the Boro award as Best Public Safety Officer. “I am very surprised and humbled, I had no idea I was in the running,” Brown said. “The Lord is always working.” Brown, as most people know, is a candidate for sheriff to replace current Sheriff Lynn Anderson, who is retiring when his term expires on Dec. 31. Brown said he loves his job. “The best part of my job is helping people,” he said. “I believe in being courteous and doing it with a smile. I won’t pass by someone that needs help.” Brown has been with the Bulloch Sheriff’s Office since 1998 and is appreciative of all the other fine law enforcement officers he works with. “I am so humbled that people thought of me, but there are other deserving officers that should win, too,” he said. “I won’t change but I’ve had my turn.”

It’s been 18 months since Kennedy Realty became Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Kennedy Realty, and one thing that didn’t change – the company once again earned Best of the Boror honors as Best Real Estate Agency. “We are truly honored to win this award this year as our integrity and client satisfaction are a top priority for our agents,” said Everett Kennedy. “I think that one thing that sets us apart is our sincere care for our clients and going the extra mile for them. Our agents work tirelessly to not only assist you with your home buying or selling needs, but to create meaningful and lasting relationships. Purchasing or selling a home is usually one of the most important financial decisions a person will ever make, and our agents are committed to exceeding the clients expectations and making them feel comfortable every step of the way. “That dedication, along with our market knowledge and experience I think helped us win.” And Kennedy is confident his team’s dedication to service will give them a good shot at Best of the Boro for 2017. “We intend to stay true to our time tested business principles and values to our clients and their needs, while staying on the leading edge of technology and marketing to ensure we provide the best service possible in the future,” he said.

Tracy Mallary and Shelly Stringer officially became known as “The Advantage Team” from Re/Max Preferred Realty in Statesboro in January, but the two agents have been working together for 22 years. The Advantage Team – Mallary and Stringer – earned Best of the Boro honors for 2016 and Mallary says the reason is quite simple: “We work as a team to provide the best customer service possible. We make ourselves available 24-7 and are dedicated to going above and beyond for all our clients.” Mallary cited the importance of creating a smooth working relationship from the first meeting with a client. “We are always up front with the whole process,” she said. “We bring multiple options to clients and work to satisfy both the buyer and seller. We understand it can be a stressful time, so we want to ease some of that wherever we can.” Mallary said it is an honor to be voted Best of the Boro and she assured everyone that “Shelly and I will continue to be the best we can be.” “Whatever a customer needs, we’ll be there.”

Best All Around For the second year in a row, The Boiling Shrimp was selected by readers as the Best All Around Restaurant in Best of the Boro voting. Since it opened in 2014, the restaurant on Highway 301 South has built a loyal clientele. Adam Tsang with The Boiling Shrimp said: “Our mission statement is ‘The Boiling Shrimp is committed to providing the best seafood restaurant experience.’ To live up to this, we invest a ton of energy into making our employees satisfied. With a happy workforce, they will naturally take care of the customers. From our low country boil served in a bag to our deep fried Oreos, we are really ‘The Whole Nine Yards.’” And Tsang said the restaurant goes a little further for its customers “We focus on building a great brand,” he said. “The Boiling Shrimp is much more than just somewhere that you go eat. It’s somewhere that you go to experience that southern hospitality that is lacking in many restaurants.” Tsang already is looking to making The Boiling Shrimp experience an even better one for customers in the coming year. “We never settle and always strive to improve,” he said. “Even 1 percent a day compounded over time will do wonders for any business.”
