Busy Dr. Ben

Doctor D has been in a whirl-wind lately...which means the rest of his family has too!
He had his 3rd round of Board Reviews for SEVEN days straight, until 9:30 every night about a month ago. He then flew straight to Florida for a business (as well as personal) trip to a chiropractor's seminar and then to shadow/visit a very good friend of his. He was there for almost a week. The Lampe Family welcomed him with open arms, as they always do! Since he's been back, he has been working under a chiropractor in Overland Park, finishing up his business plan, contacting banks, studying for his final round of boards, working on floor plans, and honing in on the practice itself. He was also finishing up with his patients at the clinic and checking out at school with the clinicians. However- the studying part has come to a close. Today he got back from a 4 day trip to Dallas, which is where he took his 4th and FINAL Round of Boards!! No more classes, no more textbooks, no more tests! December 26th will be when he gets his results! :)

3 Fabulous Spots!

We have 3 choices at this point on the location of our future practice! Let us know what you think of the options.

Our first (and this is in no certain order), is in Liberty behind the Bob Evans and beside the Jiffy Lube. It's basically west of I-35 by a few blocks and just north of 152. There are many other shops/restaurants over in this section, not to mention a Super Target, Home Depot, Chili's, etc. This is a brand new building that is owned by Bret Ohlhausen. He has a State Farm office on the left side of the building, and we would most likely occupy the other half. It is really nice, inside and out.

Our second option would be a strip center north of 152 and on the west side of North Oak. They have just recently put in a brand new McDonald's and Taco Bell, a Snap Fitness, a cleaners, a nail salon, and a hair salon too. We anticipate quite a bit of growth in this area 1.) because they have made North Oak now a 4 lane road, and 2.) Staley High School just opened a few months ago! Ben also really likes the idea that it would be more accessible to our Parkville friends, as well as the Liberty community-- A happy medium!

Our third and final option at this point is another strip center on the south side of Hwy 152, also on the west side of North Oak. This particular center has only a nail salon, but we anticipate this being a great location too! It is the most accessible out of the three and would be extrememly convenient for patients. Getting on and off of the highway in a matter of seconds certainly has its benefits! There are other stores in this section too- places you would go to help with your home maintenance and/or decor.
