It’s time for open enrollment. What does that mean? by Carol Kuter, Office Manager
For many of us, it’s time to choose our health insurance coverage for next year. With open enrollment meetings around the corner, you will probably hear a few terms that may be unfamiliar. Following is a list of some common terms that may be helpful.
It’s Cold and Flu Season!
It's that time of year again! Yes it is Christmas, but it is also the cough, cold & flu season. If your family is anything like mine, it's a hard time of the year! In the past month alone, we had flu, ear infection & tummy bug!

Beauty in the Chaos: Thoughts on Baby #2 for Any Second Time Moms by Hillary Lewis, M.D.

With the relaxed atmosphere, it was a much needed break for the staff.
