Southwest Square Foot Care – 10/19/09
There is a saying, “ of your feet hurt, you hurt all over.”
Dr. Charles Greiner says, “ Feet are our foundation. If they break down we break down.”
That is why Greiner has expanded his foot care services to the Southwest area. Southwest Square Foot Care specializes in all aspects of foot and ankle care from the skin to the bone. The office is located at Harrisburg Pike and Eakin Road in the Southwest Square shopping center (next to Subway).
Greiner’s family has a 60-year tradition of excellence in foot care. His grandfather, father and two sisters all went to podiatry school. Now, the doctor is expanding his expertise to the Southwest and Westside areas to focus on the under served portion of Columbus.
“I have always enjoyed the folks on the Westside and I am a product of the South-Western City Schools District,” said Greiner.
Southwest Square Foot Care offers the latest technology for diagnosis and treatment of feet and ankles, such as in-office x-rays, diagnostic ultrasound, testing for peripheral vascular disease, electronic medical records, medicare covered diabetic shoes and wound care supplies. Greiner, and his team, are especially concerned with not only correcting the patients’ current condition, but also making sure the condition does not return. The doctors accomplish this task by using custom-made inserts for shoes called orthotics.
“We truly care about our patients’ good foot health,” Greiner remarked. “We run an efficient office and make every effort to see patients at their appointed time.”
Greiner and Dr. Craig Murad are currently accepting new patients. Each patient is treated with courtesy, care and dignity.
Most insurance plans and accepted. The office’s billing services takes care of the paperwork.

Jerry Spears Conpany – 11/02/09
Jerry Spears Funeral Home is a family-owned and operated funeral home and crematory. The business began in 1928 when Jerry Spears Sr., a Methodist minister, saw the need for a funeral home on the Westside of Columbus.
He began the business in a home on W. Broad Street, which is still part of the current building. An expansion in 1952 added the large center chapel and the east chapel.
The funeral home underwent a complete restoration after a fire in early 2007, which allowed for some changes such as enlarged chapels, a new lounge and revamped music and video system.
Jerry Spears is now in its fourth generation of the Spears family, continuing the family heritage of providing excellent funeral and cremation services.
Jerry Spears offers professional service under the direction of a knowledgeable, experienced staff.“We serve all faiths with personal and informative care. We truly care about each family and their wishes. We want the funeral experience to be a time of healing and peace,” said Rebecca Spears.
Spears added that this personalization includes things such as tribute videos played on flat-screen TVs in each chapel, thumbprint jewelry and a variety of musical options.
For over 81 years, families have trusted Jerry Spears Funeral Home to continue the tradition of providing funerals at a reasonable price. They also offer guaranteed pre-arrangement options, and are willing to answer any questions about pre-planning, social security, and veteran benefits.
Jerry Spears Funeral Home is located on the southeast corner of Hague Avenue and West Broad Street.

Our rehabilitation community is separate from our extended care community and offers a number of private rooms for residents needing short-term care.

In addition to 24-hour nursing care, physical, occupational and speech therapy is available Monday thru Friday with evaluations on Saturday.
Our secure memory care community accommodates residents living with memory impairments brought on by Dementia or Alzheimer’s. For comfort and safety, residents have access to a private landscaped courtyard. They also enjoy memory care activities and are cared for by specially trained nurses and nursing assistants. This community’s common areas were renovated last year and feature family style spaces that include a lovely fire place, comfortable couches and chairs, a dining room and French doors that lead to the private courtyard.
The residents in our extended care community live in one of two neighborhoods based on their individual needs. One neighborhood accommodates residents that need a little assistance with daily living while the other cares for residents that need a greater level of assistance.
Person-centered care initiatives are taking place throughout Monterey. The goal is to focus on the needs of the whole person in addition to the physical and medical needs. Our staff strives to provide the physical, social, emotional, spiritual and comfort needs of each individual person we care for.
Monterey is one of five nursing and assisted living communities locally owned and operated by The Macintosh Company. The local ties enable our executives to be accessible and accountable. Our company strives to provide a close knit family atmosphere where employees are valued and respected. This commitment has resulted in a tenured nursing staff that averages 17 years!
The cornerstone of our company is a sincere desire to treat people as we would want to be treated.

Pinnacle Dental – 12/13/09
“It is impossible to maintain a healthy lifestyle without proper oral health, which includes routine visits to a dentist,” said Dr. Ryan N. Eskridge with Pinnacle Dental in Grove City.
Recent studies have found a link between poor oral health and systemic conditions such as heart attacks and strokes.
“Dentistry, as a profession, has been at the forefront of educating patients of the importance of preventative care and our practice is based on that philosophy,” Eskridge noted.
Pinnacle Dental emphasizes conservative treatment of the teeth and surrounding structures, including non-surgical periodontal therapy and oral cancer screenings. Eskridge has successfully utilized CEREC CAD/CAM single visit dentistry in the practice since 2003. CEREC eliminates the need for temporary restorations and second appointments to cement restorations, minimizing the time a patient spends at the office.
“We are also proficient in all types of implant dentistry, which is probably the fastest growing part of our practice,” said Eskridge.
Patients at Pinnacle Dental benefit greatly from replacing missing teeth with implants, as opposed to partials or complete dentures. The practice also offers several cosmetic services for patients who want to improve their smile, including whitening, porcelain crowns and veneers, cosmetic bonding and metal-free partials. For those denture wearers, there has been significant advancement in implant supported appliances that greatly enhance the comfort and chewing capabilities of removable dentures.
Dr. Eskridge and his staff are committed to providing exceptional patient care in a relaxed and comfortable environment.
“It is our intention to earn the trust and confidence of every single patient we have the privilege of treating,” said Eskridge. “In fact, over 90 percent of our new clients are recommended to us by family and friends who choose Pinnacle Dental for their oral health care.”
