Deluxe Version MAN OF THE YEAR
Deluxe Version’s 2018
MAN OF THE YEAR – By Dani Reeves

hen it was time to name Deluxe Version Magazine’s Man of the Year, Dr. Neville Campbell was an obvious choice. His blend of grace and dignity is not only on point with this brand, he’s respected and admired both in and out of our community for being a quality human being. Last June, a man walked into Campbell’s office, the Pain and Wellness Center of Las Vegas, with a loaded gun and opened fire. Four people were injured that day; two of them, staff. It was an overwhelming experience, and with so many people looking toward him for leadership, Campbell decided to take action to help his staff move forward in a powerful way. “My belief in God pulled me through that dark period,” says Campbell. “My staff and I trusted in ourselves that we were called for a specific reason, and that passion was not going to be dimmed by that event.
“That day changed the way we appreciate things,” he continues. “It was a profound lesson: We no longer take for granted the golden moments. Before that day, [we were] a group of people helping our patients; now, we are a family….We feel strong and have a sense of togetherness and peace. We now understand what our purpose is.” Campbell’s leadership abilities extend further than the doors of his Las Vegas practice. For the second year in a row, he’s bringing leading doctors in their fields to Ecuador to join Healing Hands Abroad, a group that volunteers time and expertise to underprivileged communities around the world. “We started something [in Ecuador], and I want to go back to finish,” says Campbell. Campbell spoke with hope in his eyes as he gave us a day-in-the life account of their time last year in Ecuador. “We started early with a cold shower and a healthy organic breakfast...
fresh fruit and local eggs.” Coffee was an essential, although one cup was strong enough to get folks through until the afternoon. When the doctors arrived at the clinic, people were already lined up and waiting. “When we approached the clinic, the patients would start clapping!” Campbell says that some patients would travel 2 days to receive help. Many had never seen a doctor. The staff worked religiously through each day, attending to as many patients as possible. They might not have been able to treat everyone during their stay, but they tried. Deluxe Version Magazine congratulates Dr. Neville Campbell! You are the epitome of class and style. We couldn’t think of a more perfect person to recognize. For more information about Dr. Neville Campbell and the Pain and Wellness of Las Vegas visit www.cwpclv.com
