Say goodbye to leg pain Sponsored by Mid Dakota Clinic

Dr. Steven Hamar, vascular surgeon at Mid Dakota Clinic in Bismarck, knows what it’s like to suffer from varicose veins. “I was 16 when I had my first varicose veins, a huge clump of them, and I had my first surgery at 35,” Dr. Hamar says. “I’ve had three other surgeries since then.”

Vein problems develop in all age groups and affect about 25 percent of women and 15 percent of men for a total of about 25-40 million people in the United States. “Fifty percent of the population over the age of 50 have varicosities of some kind,” Dr. Hamar says.

Patients may experience leg fatigue or heaviness, burning and swelling with more serious conditions or simply having an unsightly appearance. The good news is that there is relief for the discomfort and appearance of most unsightly veins.

The Vein Center is a one-stop center for patients where options range from conservative, non-invasive treatments to the latest minimally invasive procedures that can be performed in-office. The most common vein problems Dr. Hamar treats are varicose veins and chronic

venous insufficiency, which are veins that are not functioning properly and are refluxing.

Reflux is the inability of a vein to stop blood from rushing back down the leg, thereby increasing venous pressure and creating symptoms of venous disease. The objective is to relieve the reflux that has created the problem.

The first step for anyone wanting to treat vein problems is an evaluation, which may include a venous ultrasound to determine the source of the problem. Some patients can be helped through simple, non-surgical approaches such as wearing compression stockings, while others are best helped with sclerotherapy, endovenous closure, stripping, or TRIVEX® for varicose veins.

“We want to do this right,” Dr. Hamar says.

“We go through the whole process with you. I spend about an hour with you the first time, going through your history and your symptoms. We’ll talk about venous disease, why you have it and the best approach to treat it. We’ll also discuss compression stockings, as most insurance carriers require three months of use before we can do anything definitive about your veins.”

ND

If a decision is made to proceed with further treatment, most patients are scheduled on an outpatient basis, coming in and going home the same day. Procedures take anywhere from 15 minutes to an hour depending on the size and number of veins to be treated, and the treatment approach that is chosen.

Six weeks post-op

“Most people hate to hear the term vein stripping,” he says. “They remember grandma having her veins stripped, being in bed for two to three weeks, being black and blue for months, and hurting like crazy. What we do today is not like that. It’s not your grandma’s old vein stripping.”

Dr. Hamar has been doing vein procedures for 40 years, and has concentrated solely on veins for the past 10 years. “Usually these are not life-threatening situations, but it can make your life uncomfortable,” he says. “You can live with it, but why? Most patients are very pleased with their outcomes.”

Dr. Hamar says that he uses the TRIVEX® system most often, which eliminates the need for multiple incisions in the leg and causes very little, if any, pain. Patients go home the same day and are encouraged to walk, but not engage in strenuous activity. Many return to work in one or two days. “It’s faster, easier and more thorough. Most say their leg feels good on the first visit back. They say they didn’t realize their leg was hurting that badly, and now it feels great!”

Dr. Hamar says he really enjoys teaching others how to do these procedures and has been involved in medical education for years, even going to Canada to teach other practitioners how to use the TRIVEX® system. But what he finds the most rewarding is seeing how these procedures can impact his patients’ lives. “I really enjoy making people feel better,” he says. “We can prevent life-long uncomfortable legs. Most people ask why in the world did I wait so long?”

randon Ralph was in the market for a career change and to become his own boss. He decided to jump feet first into a new career in the food and beverage industry. His interest spiked with Bruno's Pizza. It had been open for six years, was a niche pizzeria with quality food, and he loved eating it!

Brandon purchased Bruno's Pizza four years ago and it is now celebrating ten years. “With some advertising I knew that it could be something special,” says Brandon.

Since taking ownership Brandon has opened a second location in Minot almost two years ago.

“The previous owners did a great job with the food, the quality of it. We have continued down that path but marketed it better. Getting the pizza into people’s hands, creating return customers, has brought us to where we are today.”

I

n 1986 Bob was living in Williston and working in the oil field. That same year the company he was working for closed and interviews, let alone jobs, were near impossible to get. Bob and his wife made the move to Mandan. In May of 1987 Bob started selling cars at Ivan Gandrud Chevrolet. “It was a starting point, I thought I would sell cars until I found a real job and I’ve been looking ever since,” laughs Bob. In June of 1988 Dave Ressler took over the dealership and the name was changed to Ressler Chevrolet. That year Bob started doing back up finance and insurance, eventually transitioning into that for five years. Then he was the used car manager for three years, until becoming General Manager.

In late 1998 “I got called into Dave’s office after a week-long fishing trip in Canada, I thought I was getting fired, I had never taken time off before.” That was the day Dave Ressler asked Bob to buy into the store. “I told Ressler, I don’t have that kind of money, but he knew I had the

work ethic and the desire so we made it happen,” says Bob. “This was an opportunity that I knew would never come around again. I couldn’t say no.”

In 2000 he bought his first shares of stock and it took the next 9 years to get 100 percent ownership. In March of 2011 Ressler Chevrolet was renamed Kupper Chevrolet.

From this opportunity that Bob was given 20 years ago by Dave, it has put him in the position to be able to give back to the community. Kupper Chevrolet will be celebrating their 13th Annual Fundraiser and Car show on September 8th that has raised over $125,000 since its beginning.

Bob added Bismarck Motor Company to his portfolio in July of 2011. Talks began with Chris Schneider a few months after. Bob knew Chris was his guy to set up to take over Bismarck Motor Company, setting him up just like Dave Ressler had done with him 20 years ago. Bob has no plans to sell Kupper Chevrolet.

25 SPECIALIZED CLEANING AND RESTORATION

JERRY THOMAS, STACEY THOMAS, AMBER SANDNESS, SETH SANDNESS, 25 YEARS

J

erry and his family were living in Williston but he had always felt that Bismarck was the place to be. In 1966 Jerry was visiting Bismarck with some buddies and said “Someday I am going to live in Bismarck-Mandan.” In the early 1990s Jerry came across an ad in the Bismarck Tribune advertising cleaning franchises in the upper Midwest. “I called my buddy to see if he would take a trip with me to Fargo to check out an operation. I didn’t know enough to not like the industry,” says Jerry. From there he went to training school, quit his job and uprooted his wife, Shirley Thomas, and two daughters, Amber Sandness and Stacey Thomas to move to Bismarck and start a company he had no experience in, Specialized Cleaning and Restoration.

“I was 42 years of age, all my buddies

told me that I was going to move down to Bismarck and go broke. That was the biggest motivating factor. I believed in myself.” Jerry started as a one man show and retired being bought out by his daughters, along with his son in law Seth Sandness who has been involved in the business since 2000.

Being in the restoration industry is unpredictable. From overland flooding to fire, Specialized Cleaning and Restoration has seen it all and serviced it all over North Dakota, with about a 500-mile radius. “I do a little of everything, always pitching in where needed. We are a family business so I’m in the 'as duty calls' position,” says Seth.

“When Jerry started this business is was a mop and a bucket. The industry has changed so much

over the last 25 years. Buildings have changed, construction has changed. This all presents different challenges,” says Seth. He stresses how important it is to stay on top of “the ever-changing technology, the knowledge the techs have to know for drying out structures and cleaning has progressed so much over the years.”

So what do the next 25 years and next generation think about Specialized Cleaning and Restoration? “It’s always in the back of our mind to build a business that the next generation would be honored and excited to take on.

We try and build that every day, but seeing the business succeed at its own level is a piece of pride that is worth all the challenges that come with it,” says Stacey.

30 GOEBEL DENTISTRY DR. MICHAEL, DR. BRYCE, DR. DREW 30 YEARS

G

oebel Pediatric Dentistry is celebrating 30 years of business, not only have their doors been open for three decades, but two of Dr. Goebel’s sons have joined him in his practice.

Mike and his wife, Karen, moved to Lincoln, Nebraska with their sixmonth-old son Bryce to start the journey of dental school. “I was one of the only dental students with a child, so I knew how to work with kids well. My favorite rotation was our pediatric rotation and I saw it as a perfect fit for me,” explains Dr. Mike Goebel.

In 1987 Mike continued his education at the University of Iowa and became certified as a pediatric dentist.

“When I graduated there were two pediatric dentists in the state, both were in Fargo, ND. We were from Bismarck, ND and wanted to fill that gap here, everything seemed to fall into place,” says Dr. Mike.

In 1987 he rented a small space with two chairs and opened his doors as the first pediatric dentist in western North Dakota. Twenty-one years later, Mike’s son Bryce joined the Goebel practice. “I always thought I would go to medical school, but the more I shadowed that field, I realized it wasn’t for me. I spent a lot of late nights talking to my dad and trying to decide on a path, and I found a passion for dentistry,” says Bryce.

Following in his father’s footsteps, Bryce graduated from dental school at the University of Nebraska and followed suit, continuing on to the University of Iowa to complete his residency in pediatric dentistry. “I really did fall in love with my pediatric rotation, I resisted it for a while, but in the end I loved it and wanted to follow that passion. My dad was in need of some help, so I joined the practice and hit the ground running,” exclaims Dr. Bryce.

Dr. Bryce has been working with kids for ten years and is loving it. “I get to do what I love with who I love every day, what more could you ask for?” says Dr. Bryce.

One Goebel son was not enough though and in 2013 Dr. Drew joined the team. “I grew up at the office and loved helping out there. I struggled with what I wanted to do like any normal teenager, but I had amazing resources to help guide me and help me figure out what I was passionate about,” says Dr. Drew. He found that same love and passion for working with kids that his father and brother had. Dr. Drew graduated from University of Iowa with his DDS and pediatric dentistry residency. “It is such a hands-on specialty, kids are the best patients. They are always so fun and entertaining and I get to laugh all day,” says Dr. Drew.

Proud to support local entrepreneurs and natural product lines.

DAVE GOODIN, PRESIDENT AND CEO OF MDU RESOURCES GROUP â&#x20AC;¢ 70 YEARS

M

DU Resources Group is celebrating 70 years on the New York Stock Exchange this year.

In 1948, Montana-Dakota Utilities Co. transitioned from being 100 percent privately owned to today being traded every day on the exchange.

Dave Goodin, president and CEO, has been around for just over 35 of those years and is an integral part of its astounding growth.

The company originally started in 1924 as a small electric utility in western North Dakota and eastern Montana. A group of investors from the Minneapolis/St. Paul area saw an opportunity to acquire what were then municipal owned systems. Back in those days small electric plants, generally fueled by kerosene, were used to power the lights in a town, but when the operator went home at night, the lights went out. (except Monday nights which was wash day, lights stayed on until 9pm) The investor group bought a number of these municipal systems, linked transmission lines between the towns and connected them to a larger power plant that would enable them to bring power to these communities 24 hours a day.

years but now finds himself in the position of President and CEO of MDU Resources Group for the past six years.

MDU Resources Group became an entity in 1985, the parent company to many businesses.

Under MDU Resources Group are two construction companies.

One materials based (Knife River Corporation) and one service based (MDU Construction Services Group).

On the other platform, which they refer to as regulated energy delivery, is traditional utilities (Montana-Dakota Utilities in the Bismarck/Mandan area) and the natural gas pipeline business called WBI Energy.

WBI ENERGY “We became a natural gas pipeline company in the late 1920’s as gas was discovered in eastern Montana.

We then brought that natural gas to Glendive and put up a natural gas power plant that became Central Station Service. This in turn made us a pipeline company that today is known as WBI Energy,” says Dave.

KNIFE RIVER CORPORATION

In 1983, the very recent North Dakota State University graduate David Goodin started with Montana-Dakota Utilities Co. in Dickinson as a field electrical engineer. “I secured the job in March and started in May. I took a week to move, get a bank account and get settled,” says Dave.

Onward to Glendive, MT where Dave was also a field engineer then to Williston, ND. About six years into his career he became a supervisor of line crews, and meter and service technicians for five years. From there he and his family moved to Bismarck and have called it home ever since.

Dave has served in a number of different roles. He was the President of Montana-Dakota Utilities for five

In the 1940’s Montana-Dakota Utilities acquired some small coal mining operations that fed a few power plants, known then as Knife River Coal. In the 1990’s the leaders of the company decided to sell the coal mining business. They found, however that their mining expertise, such as extracting material from the ground, adding value to it, and meeting permitting and environmental regulations, could be applied to the aggregate industry. Since the early 1990s, the company has acquired about 75 aggregate operations across the western half of the United States and now operates in 17 states.

Today, these aggregate operations

are known as Knife River Corporation.

It is one of the top five producers of aggregate sand and gravel in the United States. It’s projected to do about $1.8 billion in revenue in 2018.

MDU CONSTRUCTION SERVICES GROUP MDU Construction Services Group was started in the late 1990’s. “We felt we had expertise in building power lines and pipelines for ourselves so we knew we could do this for others,” says Dave. They started by acquiring small power line construction and pipeline building companies for about 20 years.

“Today we have a business that will do about $1.5 billion in revenue in 2018 and serves 47 states,” says Dave.

MDU UTILITIES GROUP (MONTANA-DAKOTA UTILITIES CO. IN THE BISMARCK/MANDAN AREA) The utility side of the business is where it all began back in 1924.

Throughout eight different states MDU Resources Group has four different utility companies which serve more than 1.1 million customers.

“At peak season we employ about 13,000 employees across all the different entities. About 10,000 on the construction side and 3,000 on the utilities side,” explains Dave. How do the next seventy years look? “We really want to focus on this regulated energy platform, (retail utility and pipeline) and construction businesses platform (material and service).

These are very much infrastructure companies for the United states.”

With a tagline “Building a Strong America” Dave is very excited for the future of this company as a key part of America’s building blocks.

When Is It Time to Call in a

Wellness Professional? by: Tana Trotter | photo: Glasser Images You’ve been exercising or are trying to exercise more.

You follow a couple of trainers on Instagram.

You are trying to make improvements to your diet so you use a shake that worked well for a friend.

You want to feel better & have more energy so you’re trying a supplement recommended by a co-worker.

We love to hear that people are taking control of their health & wellness, but there are times when it’s important to enlist the help of a wellness professional - someone who has received formal education and training in health & wellness. Whether that’s a Registered Dietitian or Nurse, a Certified Personal Trainer, a Physical Therapist, or a Certified Wellness Coach trained to help you help yourself!

Here are a couple of signs it’s time to call in a Wellness Professional!

You are on several supplements and/or medications.

Supplements have become very popular over the past few years as has the increase in prescription medications being used to treat many health conditions. People don’t often realize that combining supplements and medications can cause adverse effects or make your prescribed medication

BISMARCK MAGAZINE | SEPTEMBER-OCTOBER 2018

less effective. It is important to discuss all of the medications and supplements you are taking with a single professional to ensure that everything is working as it should and to prevent harmful reactions from occurring.

You are restricting.

So many diets are focused on calorie restriction and food group eliminations. Over-restricting your caloric intake for an extended period of time damages your metabolism and will eventually lead to a weight gain . As you restrict, your body slows down your metabolism to protect itself from the lack of nutrition. Eliminating entire food groups can also quickly lead to missing key nutrients in your diet. Meeting with a registered licensed professional can help you to not only see what you should be eating but also decrease the anxiety that surrounds food and dieting.

You are overwhelmed.

Life is busy and are people stressed, exhausted and often overwhelmed when it comes time to make a change. We know we need to get healthy, but it can be very difficult to know where to start. Having a certified coaching professional on your side to help you make realistic goals and lay out the steps can really make a difference in long-term success.

Can Your Company Withstand the Test of Time?

By Paula Graner | Photos provided by GHR consulting

If you want your company to last only one word comes to mind: culture! We define our organization’s culture – good or bad, strong or weak, intended or not, every day through our words, actions and leadership.

Merriam-Webster Dictionary defines culture as follows: the customary beliefs, social forms, and material traits of a racial, religious, or social group, the characteristic features of everyday existence; the set of shared attitudes, values, goals and practices that characterizes an institution or organization.

Cultural sustainability is what we want.

However, with all the foreclosures of businesses it is not what we have.

Creating a culture like Midwest Motor Express celebrating 100 years, one of the featured business this issue, takes time and effort. Think of your company culture like a tree. Trees have roots that are strong and run deep. They bend when the wind blows, they provide shelter and contribute to society.

Unfortunately, invasive beetles can stunt 54

the growth or even end the life of a tree just like bad employees can suck the life out of a company.

A company culture that will stand the test of time is rooted in four key elements.

The first is morale. Focus on morale, and employees’ engagement will follow. Hire for attitude because skill can be taught.

The second element is trusting relationships. Is the water cooler talk the same information management has or is the story altered for management?

Trusting relationships take time to grow.

You can’t expect to plant a seed and come back the next day and have a tree.

Company culture takes effort and work daily.

A strong culture is rooted in leadership’s belief they are the cultural keeper. They must “walk the walk and talk the talk”.

The management team must continue to access the situation checking what is working and what is not. They must be the roots holding firm to the organization’s traditions, values and mission.

BISMARCK MAGAZINE | SEPTEMBER-OCTOBER 2018

The fourth element is respect. Employees want to be heard and know that they have a meaningful impact on their job and the company. Respect must be given and the actions of all involved must be consistent with the expectation.

Your company culture should be thought of as a tool to recruit and retain great employees. When you meet someone and ask the question “where do you work?” you associate that person with the company. Your company/culture is represented in each team member outside their workplace.

Not sure how your organization’s culture would be described? Ask three questions. What is tolerated? What is overlooked? What is modeled? The answers are revealing.

In Sickness and in Health

story: Kayla Schmidt | photos: ND Humanities Council

Think back to your last doctor’s appointment. You’re weighed in, temperature taken, blood pressure noted, and if a diagnosis is made, dosages of medication are calculated and meted out. Medical care often consists of an endless list of numbers--all of our biological functions put into charts.

Unfortunately, humans are notoriously complicated both in our bodies and our minds.

We love making sense of things. Those in the medical field are asked to fulfill a difficult task: help us quantify big concepts. What is illness? What makes a person healthy? Who defines what normal looks like? Mental health often suffers the same incalculability. Self-

help book sections are full of titles like The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People.

Doctor’s appointments often begin with the question “On a scale of 1-10 how much pain are you in today?” We can’t quite do the same for happiness.

Quantifying the body takes a new approach with this year’s GameChanger Ideas Festival. Featuring several speakers who straddle the realm of health and humanities, the daylong event seeks to provide context for the 2018 theme, “The Pursuit of Health and Happiness.”

Andrew Solomon, a clinical psychologist, interviewed a wide range of families for his book Far From the Tree: Parents, Children, and the Search for Identity.

He finds that while there is support in numbers for those who raise children with autism, deafness, dwarfism, schizophrenia, and more, each case is often it’s own stand-alone story. We can categorize, but we can never fully define an individual’s experience.

Dhruv Khullar, a physician, is concerned with our healthcare system’s trade-off of efficiency over empathy. In a data-driven world, it’s the charts and reports that staff are asked to focus on, rather than the people they are healing. Our doctors and nurses are often fatigued themselves.

Scores of medical establishments across the country are embracing art and literature classes specifically designed for medical staff. A new approach known as

narrative medicine asks physicians to listen to their patient’s entire story before focusing on the ailment itself. These soft approaches to care often highlight what the numbers miss.

Numbers and people shouldn’t mix according to Ashton Applewhite. Author of This Chair Rocks: A Manifesto Against Ageism, Applewhite is an anti-ageism activist. She believes that by defining people by their birthdate has lead to a surge of anxiety about aging in our society. Our obsession with youth is misleading and “olders” (the term she encourages us to use) are often the happiest among us.

The ultimate calculation is our expiration date. For Caitlin Doughty, the number of dead bodies she’s encountered is innumerable. As a mortician at a non-profit funeral home and author of Smoke Gets in Your Eyes and Other Lessons from the Crematory, Doughty has gained fame online for her YouTube series, “Ask a Mortician” and her call for death-positivity. Her bubbly demeanor counteracts the visceral reaction we often have when a conversation turns to the morbid. Never fear, Doughty puts the “fun” in “funeral”.

As a program of Humanities North Dakota, the GameChanger Ideas Festival is an opportunity for the public to come together and talk about the big issues that affect us all and to discuss the questions in life we can’t quantify. But we can offer you a few numbers: “The Pursuit of Health and Happiness” takes place on October 13 at the Belle Mehus Auditorium in Bismarck. Visit gamechangernd.com for more information about tickets, opportunities for credit hours, and our speakers. In the end, the humanities are here in sickness and in health.

THANK YOU! FOR A #NDGOODTIME

Over the past two years, ND Country Fest has donated over $16,000 to local and state charities.

The summer was wild! If you did not attend the second annual ND Country Fest you missed out, it was a #NDGOODTIME. The founders Luke Shafer and Brandon Ralph threw one heck of a party and successfully began the festival movement in North Dakota. “I love music and the festival scene offers so much more of an experience than just a concert. We wanted to create that experience for North Dakota without having to leave this state,” expresses Luke.

This three day country music festival

began Thursday, July 11 with their give back night, for the entire community to enjoy, and ended with a bang Saturday night. Over the course of three days over 16,000 attendees enjoyed music from locals like Small Town Boys and Brianna Helbling, to headliners such as Neal McCoy, Clay Walker and LOCASH. Partiers came from all across the country to join in the fun, camping under the iconic New Salem Sue and dancing with the DJs until morning. Not only do they throw a great party, but Luke and Brandon give back. Over the past two years

ND Country Fest has donated over $16,000 to local and state charities as part of their give back night.

“ND Country Fest was the highlight of my summer,” exclaims an attendee. “I am coming every year, best weekend ever,” said another.

It’s already in the works for a bigger and better year next year. Stay tuned and up-to-date on artists, early bird ticket prices and need to know details by following on social media @ndcountryfest or visiting their website ndcountryfest.com.

You won’t want to miss next year.
