Why a turnkey, one-stop shop is essential for your bath or kitchen remodel Brought to you by – Bath and Kitchen Galleria When it comes to remodeling your kitchen or bathroom, the process can quickly become overwhelming. From creating ideas and solutions, and selecting materials to finding contractors for plumbing, electrical work, and installation, managing multiple vendors and services can be stressful. Remodeling projects start with a vision but bringing that vision to life requires expertise. An in-house design team needs to work closely with you to create a customized plan that reflects your personal style, and preferences, and stays within your budget—offering
services like 3D renderings, so you can visualize your space before any work begins. With expert guidance every step of the way, you can be confident your project is set up for success. Coordinating multiple contractors— plumbers, electricians, tile installers, and more—can be time-consuming and frustrating. With a turnkey remodeler, you get full-service project management, to handle every aspect of the renovation. Having a team to ensure that the design, material selection, scheduling, and installation are all aligned to create a smooth, stress-free experience is key. You don’t have to worry about chasing contractors or keeping up with timelines—it will be done all for you.
One of the biggest advantages of working with a one-stop shop is the convenience of having everything you need in one place. A great showroom should be filled with an extensive selection of cabinetry in a variety of styles and finishes, plumbing fixtures from top brands, countertops including granite, quartz, marble, and more, tile for floors and backsplashes, and hardware to complete your design. Rather than running around town searching for materials, you can explore all your options under one roof, with our team guiding you through each choice. Choosing a turnkey, one-stop-shop remodeler like Bath & Kitchen Galleria means more than just convenience—it
means a smoother, more enjoyable remodeling experience with expert guidance, seamless coordination, and a wide selection of top-quality products to choose from while staying in your budget. Whether you’re transforming your bathroom or remodeling your kitchen, Bath & Kitchen Galleria is here to handle every detail, so you can sit back and enjoy the results! For more information visit Bath & Kitchen Galleria’s showroom at 10591 Old Alabama Rd Connector in Alpharetta (no appointment needed) M-F, 9-5 and Saturday, 10-4, or call them at 678-4592292 or visit BathandKitchenGalleria. com to schedule an appointment online.

The votes are in! Brought to you by – Deep Roots Wine Market
Deep Roots won Best in the following categories: Beverage / Wine Store, Best Date Night Hotspot, Best Place for Girls Night Out, and first runner up in the categories Best Women-Owned Business and Best Happy Hour. Why are we the best, you ask? Deep Roots is a wine market and tasting room featuring domestic wines located in Historic Roswell and now Downtown Woodstock, too. Guests can enjoy a self-service tasting tour of wine country using our WineStation machines while browsing a broad selection of retail wines and merchandise. Sip by the taste, by the glass or by the bottle(s)! At Deep Roots Wine Market, our tasting room, bar, and lounge seating invite you to unwind in a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere. With 32 wines ready for tasting through our innovative Napa Technology WineStation machines—operated by smart card—and over 300 unique wines in stock, you’ll always have something new to discover. We also offer craft beer on tap and a selection of sparkling wines by the
glass, making sure there’s something for everyone. You might be curious about how this vibrant wine haven came to life. It all started when our owner, Dana Gurela, fell in love with wine during her first visit to Napa in 2009. After she and her husband, Todd, relocated to the San Francisco Bay Area in 2012, Dana’s passion only deepened. Following five years of soaking up California’s wine culture, Dana knew it was time to return home to Georgia—but not without bringing a taste of wine country with her. The name "Deep Roots" symbolizes both our close family connections here in Georgia and the deep, strong roots of the vines that produce exceptional wine. One of the things that truly sets us apart is our incredible team. We’re like one big happy family, and that warmth extends to our customers. We’re so fortunate to work with such a wonderful group of people every day. A heartfelt thank you to our dedicated staff and loyal customers for making us the Best Beverage/Wine Store in North Atlanta! We couldn’t have done it without you.

In our 46th season of fostering a love of dance! Brought to you by – The Tolbert Yilmaz School of Dance Thank you for your votes and your support! We are dancing with joy as we begin our 46th year of dance. In 1979, Roswell native Nancy Tolbert Yilmaz opened her dance school to a small group of young students in a tiny house on Canton Street. Over the years, the school has undergone tremendous expansion in student enrollment, faculty and staff members, community outreach events, and outstanding performances, including the much-loved annual Nutcracker production, presented by the Roswell Dance Theatre, the school’s resident nonprofit pre-professional performing company. TYSOD faculty teach more than 130 classes each week to students ages two to adult across a range of technical levels. Daily class offerings include ballet, pointe, contemporary, jazz, tap, hip-hop, acrobatics and musical theatre. Our award-winning faculty possess extensive experience across many different dance genres with some being on staff for more than 25 years. The collective teaching approach is to share a love of dance while being supportive and encouraging. Whether dancers are aiming for a professional career, looking for a great place to dance, or just ready to give dance a try, there is a spot for them at our barre.
Located in the Centre Pointe plaza at the corner of Houze Road and Houze Way, Tolbert Yilmaz School of Dance is the oldest and largest dance school in the north Atlanta area. The custom-designed facility is divided into seven studios for class and rehearsals, one of which transforms into a performance space with seating for 200. All studios are equipped with sprung floors, high ceilings, large windows, and high-tech video/sound systems. We are so honored by your votes to be named “Best Dance Studio in North Atlanta." Come dance with us and join our dance community! For registration information, contact us at TYSOD.com or 770-998-0259.

Empowering minds, inspiring leaders Brought to you by - Fulton Science Academy When you walk through the doors of Fulton Science Academy, you immediately sense something unique. It is not just the hum of learning in every corner of the building, but the spark of curiosity and joy that shines in the faces of our students. At FSA, education is more than academics; it is a journey of discovery, character, and community that prepares young people for meaningful and impactful lives. Learning that inspires We believe that academic excellence must blend with creativity, innovation, and a sense of belonging. In our classrooms, students are encouraged to think deeply, explore boldly, and embrace challenges with confidence. Whether they are preparing for a Science Olympiad competition,
performing in orchestra, debating strategy, writing code, or competing on the basketball court, our students are inspired to discover their passions while developing skills that will last a lifetime. Our dedicated teachers and mentors work closely with families, ensuring that every child receives the support and encouragement they need. We nurture the whole child — mind, heart, and spirit — because we know that true success comes not only from knowledge, but from confidence, resilience, and purpose. A community that feels like home One of the most special qualities of FSA is the strong sense of belonging. Parents often share that their children feel “seen” here; celebrated for who they are, not only for what they accomplish. That feeling transforms our school into a second home, where
students are safe to take risks, grow in courage, and build lifelong friendships. This sense of connection extends well beyond our campus into the communities where our families live and contribute every day.
changing world. The greatest joy comes when alumni return and share how the lessons they learned here, in classrooms, on teams, and through friendships, continue to shape their journey.
Character at the core Each month, our school embraces a character theme such as curiosity, resilience, or advocacy. These values are not just words on a poster; they guide our daily interactions and experiences. We want our students to be known not only for their academic achievements, but for their compassion, integrity, and leadership.
Recognized, but rooted in purpose Being ranked the #1 Private PreK– 12 School in Georgia by Niche is a wonderful honor, but our true measure of success is much deeper. It is seen in the growth of each student, in the confidence with which they pursue their dreams, and in the leaders they are becoming. At Fulton Science Academy, we are not just educating students. We are empowering minds and inspiring leaders, right here in our North Fulton community and beyond.
Preparing for the future Our commitment is to prepare students for opportunities that may not even exist yet. FSA equips them with the adaptability, courage, and creativity to thrive in a rapidly

Cultivating Lifestyles and Curating Homes. Brought to you by – Kat Nelson Designs Inc. North Atlanta-based interior designer Kat Nelson believes every space should reflect the spirit of it’s inhabitants. Nelson brings visions of beauty, comfort, and functionality into homes across the city and beyond, earning her a reputation as an industry visionary. What sets Kat apart is her diverse design style and ability to bring any vision to life. She stands by the importance of meeting every clients’ individual needs and continues to create stunning, yet functional homes. “The best part of my work is when clients tell me they don’t want to leave their home”, says Kat Nelson For the last two decades, Kat has been rising as one of Atlanta’s top designers. Her collaborative approach, combined with philosophy on design, allows her to step into nearly any space and create a look and style that completely reflects her clients’ lifestyles. And while it might sound counterintuitive, Kat says she works extra hard to make sure her spaces never look like a designer decorated them. “Beautiful design is collected, not fixed”, she says. From performance fabrics that invite a “put your feet up” aesthetic, to one-ofa-kind touches that add a head-turning wow factor to every space, Kat has brought a new depth and dimension to the idea of functional beauty. “I know that functional is a huge buzzword in the design community right now, but if a space isn’t beautiful and comfortable, then you can’t enjoy living in it”, she says. “Anyone can create a pretty room. But we want you to experience a level of design that empowers you to live better lives. We want you to walk in and feel HOME” As a child, part of a military family we lived around and traveled the world. I have seen firsthand many of the beautiful places this world has to offer
and naturally drawn to beautiful things. I was always putting things together uniquely. It took me a while to realize this was actually my gift. I bring this passion and love of beauty into every one of my design projects, blending beautiful layered textures, a variety of finishes with eclectic and unexpected twists.
“The best part of my work is when clients tell me they don’t want to leave their home”, says Kat Nelson
Kat Nelson Designs has over 19 years of experience as a full-service design firm, based in Atlanta Georgia. Our projects exist from West to East coast with many repeat clients. www.katnelsondesigns.com

Thank you for voting us Best Audiologist! Brought to you by – North Georgia Audiology (NGA) Everyone wishes to live a happy, healthy life. If you were to look at your health as a chain, you would see a connected series of links. Your brain, heart, eyes, and other organs are links which must all work together to keep the body functioning. Each link plays a vital role in the chain and your overall health. What happens if one of the links, such as the ability to hear, fails to work properly? North Georgia Audiology is committed to be “your link to better hearing.” North Georgia Audiology (NGA) is one of the nation’s leading private practices for hearing healthcare. Correcting a hearing impairment requires detailed knowledge of how ears respond to sound and familiarity with the latest hearing technologies. Patients appreciate the personal touch our Doctors of Audiology provide. NGA believes it is crucial to establish a patient relationship based on professionalism and trust while focusing on their individual needs and lifestyle. Forget about what you know about hearing devices up to now; you’ll be amazed at how smart, how helpful, and how transforming better hearing can be. In addition, NGA’s Concierge Upgrade Program is a game-changer. The program allows patients to pay a small monthly fee to update their devices to the latest technology every two to three years. With our doctors’ expertise and devotion in providing solutions to hearing loss, patients can regain their confidence and are not embarrassed by inappropriate responses in conversations. The value of a strong hearing link is immeasurable. Thank you, North Atlanta, for choosing us as Best Audiologist! It is a great honor, and we truly appreciate our wonderful patients.

Premier Dermatology – Providing Excellence. Every Patient. Every Time. Brought to you by – Premier Dermatology Congratulations to Premier Dermatology and Mohs surgery of Atlanta for its eighth year in a row of being voted Best Dermatologist and Best Vein Specialist of North Atlanta! Since opening in 2017, Premier Dermatology has quickly become the go-to dermatology practice for Mohs surgery and comprehensive dermatologic care. As in years past, I decided to sit down with Dr. Brent Taylor to get his take on his success and to learn a bit more about him. Alyssa: Hey you two! Thanks for meeting with me again. Winning the Best Dermatologist and Best Vein specialist for seven years in a row means you must be doing something right! To what do you contribute your continued success? Dr. Taylor: Thank you! Well, I believe that my patients understand our sincerity and our dedication to their healthcare. Kathryn and I and our amazing team all honestly care about our patients and their wellbeing. I hope that that sincerity comes through during our interactions. We always strive to give our patients our complete attention and to learn more about an individual as a person as well as a patient. There are plenty of times when a patient brings something to our attention or when a case compels us to do additional research. Kathryn and I are constantly collaborating and advocating on our patients’ behalf. I believe that comes through. Kathryn: I agree with everything that Dr. Taylor said, our team really is wonderful. And we have received a lot of compliments that the practice has a personal and “boutique” feel, even as we deliver care that is scientific and academic. Alyssa: Do you have a patient care moment or a diagnosis of which you are exceptionally proud? Dr. Taylor: Well it is always our goal to deliver outstanding dermatologic care. Regarding diagnoses that I’m proud of, the first instances that come to mind involve catching a disease that is technically outside my specialty. For example, a patient looked a bit yellow, and I ordered a liver function test and caught acute liver failure. I helped another patient discover that one of his ureters had been accidentally cut during a surgery at the hospital. Within my own specialty I’m often most proud of how simply being thorough can be critical to a patient’s care. By being thorough, I have caught melanomas on the scalp and bottom of the feet of patients who were sometimes surprised I asked them to
PROVIDED
take out a hair tie or take their socks off. Likewise, photography helps us monitor moles for change, and just last month we caught a melanoma early because a slight change from a previous photo prompted an early biopsy. Alyssa: Is there a funny medical fact that you have learned? Dr. Taylor: Actually I have a good one! An ENT professor in medical school told us that as men age they lose the ability to hear higher pitch sounds, and, as women age, their voices increase in pitch. Thus, men naturally lose the ability to hear women with time. So the next time your wife accuses you of ignoring her: blame biology, not the football game! Alyssa: If you could tell your 16 year old self something, what would it be? Dr. Taylor: To not put too much stock in timelines. I was raised very traditionally, and I thought that I was going to meet my wife in college, get married right after we graduated then start a family a few years later, and it made me worried when I hadn’t met the right person by the time that I expected. My advice to the teenage me would be to just pour yourself into
positive and worthwhile activities and that the result would be becoming who you are supposed to and meeting who you are supposed to all in its own time. Kathryn: Stop stressing. You’ll make it happen. I was so focused on my future, worrying about not achieving my goals, and how I was going to put myself through school that I didn’t stop to enjoy being 16. In hindsight, I realize that having a bit more faith would have gotten me to the same endpoint without all of the pressure I put on myself. Alyssa: Do you have a pet peeve of which patients or staff are guilty? Dr. Taylor: I really don’t get frustrated easily. I understand that everyone has a life and everyone’s lives have struggles about which we often know little. If someone is being rude, I usually chalk it up to unseen struggles. That being said, I do wish that certain patients would realize what a marvel Mohs surgery really is. My primary pet peeve is patients mistreating my coworkers. Sometimes, patients get frustrated waiting on their tissue to process during a day of Mohs surgery. And they sometimes take it out on my medical assistants, who are wonderful and caring and are in healthcare for
the right reasons. There is a comedian who has a bit on youtube called “everything’s amazing and nobody’s happy.” He talks about how upset people get on airplanes when just a few hundred years ago a trip across the country was like the videogame Oregon Trail – the journey took months, and half of the wagon party died of cholera on the way. Like air travel, skin cancer treatment nowadays is miraculous. Prior to Mohs surgery, far more skin cancers routinely caused disfigurement and even death. Now, Mohs surgery offers a cure rate of 99% for most skin cancers, and the aesthetic results are often outstanding. Modern skin cancer care truly is fantastic. Unfortunately, the same day shipping world in which we live has made people expect immediate results, and they sometimes take out their frustrations on my coworkers. The world can always use a little more kindness, patience and grace. Thank you to Dr. Brent Taylor and Kathryn Filipek PA-C for sharing a little more about themselves and congratulations again for winning both Best Dermatologist and Best Vein Specialist in North Atlanta for 2025!

Each cancer experience is unique. Every patient has their own journey. Discover the distinction at Piedmont Cancer Institute Brought to you by – Piedmont Cancer Institute Founded in 1987, Piedmont Cancer Institute has remained committed to providing compassionate care and support for individuals diagnosed with cancer. What began as a single practice has grown into a trusted network of seven locations across the region, staffed by 19 dedicated medical oncologists. This growth reflects more than just expansion—it represents a deep commitment to making high-quality cancer care accessible within local communities. By combining advanced treatments with personalized attention, Piedmont Cancer Institute continues to stand by patients and families at every step of their journey. “As cancer diagnoses continue to rise, the demand for skilled medical oncologists is intensifying within an already complex
healthcare climate,” said Dr. Eric Mininberg, CEO of Piedmont Cancer Institute. “Patients face not only the challenges of disease but also the pressures of rising costs, fragmented systems, and disparities in access to care. To meet these realities, we must think boldly—leveraging new technologies, expanding precision therapies, and delivering them directly at the point of care. At PCI, our vision is to anticipate the future of oncology by expanding into new markets and welcoming additional oncologists, ensuring that advanced, patient-centered care remains accessible and affordable.

Home Helpers of North Atlanta Voted Best Home Care for Seniors for the Ninth Time! Brought to you by – Home Helpers of Alpharetta and North Atlanta Suburbs Home Helpers of Alpharetta and North Atlanta Suburbs says thank you to our clients, their families and our community for recognizing our commitment to providing exceptional in-home care for the ninth consecutive year. “It’s been so rewarding to see how skilled, heart centered caregiving can move your best quality of life forward” say Hilary and Greg Eldridge. “ Since we started over fourteen years ago, we’ve been committed to raise the bar for in-home care. Listening to the input of our clients continuously inspires us to find new ways to adapt to their unique needs as we share their journey through ongoing care changes.”
The most recent surveys show that an increasing number of adults over age 65, between 88% and 92%, want to age in place in the comfort of home. Having control over their daily routines, activities and lifestyle choices in a familiar environment provides a wonderful sense of confidence and emotional well being. The ease of family involvement, tailored personalized support, and companionship from a well matched caregiver provide a boost to morale and maintains connections with friends and their community. In-home care has the unique ability to provide what you need, when you need it – without having to wait. You start at a level that’s right for you that can change when life poses unexpected challenges. You never have to fit into a set plan of services. When the basic
activities of daily living get more difficult to navigate for your older loved one, or specialized care is needed for Alzheimer’s or Parkinson’s support, a skilled, heartcentered caregiver can manage daily personal care, help around the house and help make each day the best it can be. After surgery, round the clock care for those first few days home is critical and can be revised as you improve. After an extended hospital stay or recuperation after a stroke, in-home care can be the key to a speedier recovery. When home is in an assisted living community, in-home care can provide a bridge that provides immediate response to your care needs and the flexibility to remain in the setting and with the friends and lifestyle you want. Whether it’s due to an increased fall risk, changing health condition
or recuperation from a procedure, a dedicated caregiver can get you through unexpected times. We can also assist if your loved one is a Veteran who may be eligible for Aid and Attendance or Community Care programs. When your loved one has a Long Term Care Policy we can handle the reporting you need to realize the benefits of a policy you’ve carefully paid for over the years. “I saw the difference personalized service made for my Dad and always strive to provide the kind of care he’d be proud to have inspired” says Hilary. We’re here to help, from six hours a day, several days a week to 24/7 care. For a free consultation, please call Home Helpers of Alpharetta and North Atlanta Suburbs at (770) 6810323.

Mary, a former Fulton County teacher, was led to working with seniors after caring for her father. She quickly realized how difficult it was to find informational resources, products and support services. When seeking a professional change, she wanted to address some of the deficits that she had previously encountered by offering as many products as possible under one roof, and by serving as a community educational resource.
The Blocks partner with local experts like move managers, senior living placement specialists, and occupational therapists to be as informed as possible about the variety of needs that their customers have. They host lunch and learns in their 3500 sq. ft. Space on a variety of topics once a quarter. “No one that comes in for a wheelchair, stairlift, or ramp, needs just that one item. Our customers are seniors, children supporting aging parents, or those living with chronic degenerative diseases. There are always other needs besides a product purchase” says Mary.
