(L-R) Mac Healy Fritz Healy, Jr. Dr. Patrice Barber Special Advertising Section Business Focus Healy Wholesale Business Focus CityViewNC.com | 5 D r. Barber is excited to announce the establishment of Alliance Family Dental, a full-service dental office offering exceptional, comprehensive dental care for the entire family in a state-of-the-art facility. It is her goal to establish long-term relationships with her patients and create an environment of trust and caring. She looks forward to "building healthy smiles together" with her patients. Treat the person, not just the tooth. That is Dr. Patrice Barber's philosophy of providing optimal dental care. She recognizes that good oral health is a vital component of total body health. An increasing amount of evidence is proving that bacteria in the mouth is linked to major medical problems including cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and premature and low birthweight babies. It is her belief that educating patients on these and other topics will motivate patients to make better lifestyle decisions. Upon graduating with honors from the University of Maryland Dental School, Dr. Barber was commissioned into the Army where she received post- graduate training at Fort Sill, Oklahoma and completed assignments in Korea and at Ft. Bragg. Upon separating from the Army in 2004, she worked as an associate in the Fayetteville area until deciding to launch her own dental office. She is married to Fredrick Barber, and they are the proud parents of an 11-month old son, Patrick.

Alliance Family Dental H ealy Wholesale is proud to be Fayet t ev i l le's loc a l beverage wholesaler. Healy Wholesale was established in 1978 when Fritz Healy Sr. moved to Fayetteville and purchased a local wholesaler. Healy's vision was to take a few strong brands and become the local beverage expert. Over the past 31 years, Healy has purchased four other distributors and has grown to be the largest and most diversified local beer and wine wholesaler. Healy's two sons, Mac and Fritz Jr., now run the business. With brands ranging from Miller and Coors Light to Frog's Leap wines, Healy Wholesale is able to cater to the needs of every customer. With more than 80 brands of beer and hundreds of wine brands, Healy's 120 employees work diligently to make sure they feature both your old favorites along with bringing you the hottest new brands. "While most other beer and wine distributors have left Fayetteville and treat it like a secondary market," Mac Healy says, "we are proud of our local involvement and enjoy being part of this community." Being a contributory part of the community is a very important part of Healy's business philosophy. "Fayetteville has been good to us," Healy says, "and we enjoy helping the local community to grow." "When someone orders one of our brands it allows us to continue returning something back to our hometown." For more information, please contact Healy Wholesale at 910.822.3827.
