Stafford County is Virginia’s fastest-growing locality, which means people choose Stafford as a place to call home and visit.
As the pandemic fades and more people venture outside, new playing fields, parks, restaurants, breweries, and hotels draw more people to our area. That means those who work in the hospitality industry need more resources to promote the great things happening in their businesses.
Potomac Local News is excited to announce a new partnership between the Stafford County Department of Economic Development and Tourism and Potomac Local News. Members of the county’s Tourism Advisory Group will receive a 10% discount on advertising on our Website (1.5 million readers annually), our Daily News Email (19,000 opt-in subscribers), and our social media (20,000+ followers).

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.”
