The Manassas Park Community Center is going places!

By Eliut Morales

The holidays are coming up, and for the next few weeks, shopping malls will be filled with people shopping for gifts for their loved ones. If you happen to be at Manassas Mall this holiday season, be sure to look up, and you’ll find our new banner hanging above Santa’s picture station!

You see banners and advertisements at shopping malls all the time, so it may not seem like a big deal to most. For us, however, it means a great deal. The opportunity to be represented in what may be the most populated part of the mall in December means that we’ll be able to reach out to many more families about all we have to offer! Many people will be at Santa’s station to take pictures with him, and our banner will be there for everyone to see!

The pictures on the banner are only a glimpse of all the fun and exciting programs we have waiting for you. After you’re done shopping, check out Breakfast with Santa or the Light Parade to get in the holiday spirit! We’re very excited for the opportunity to show families all of the recreational activities that are right in their neighborhood.

So if you’re at Manassas Mall shopping this holiday season and find our banner, be sure to take a selfie and share it on Instagram, Facebook, or Twitter. Don’t forget to tag us by using the hashtag #MPCC2018! We look forward to seeing all the new faces that will be stopping by thanks to this opportunity. You belong here!

However, not everyone received the notice, so parking enforcement rolls in, which some see as unwarranted.

Inspired by local physicians who were among the nation’s first to adopt the concierge medicine model, Northern Virginia is now a hub for its surging popularity. These leading physicians are redefining the patient experience with same-day appointments, direct availability, unhurried visits, and deeply personalized care:

After almost 40 years in practice, Manassas-based Internist John Cary, MD’s change to concierge medicine enabled focused attention for each individual, and the launch of his innovative diet program for those with type 2 diabetes. “The goal is to promote enough weight loss to reach an acceptable A1C of 6% with no medication,” he explains. “Achieving that can take several months of very close follow up. As I tell my patients, we are in this together.”

Jay Tyroler, MD considers his patients quite literally as family. “I believe there’s nothing more honorable than helping patients when they’re sick, or scared, or feeling vulnerable, and I care for them exactly as I would my loved ones.” Whether for a specialist referral, urgent health issue or ongoing follow up, “My patients know I’m always just a phone call away.”
