New Tampa Chiropractic’s 2nd Grand Opening

By Gary Nager,

Congratulations go out to my friend and fellow Rotarian Dr. William Scheu and his amazing staff at the New Tampa Chiropractic & Injury Center (photo below), who celebrated the Grand Opening of the office’s new location in the Cypress Ridge Professional Park just off S.R. 56 in Wesley Chapel on October 3. The crowded (at least 40 or so people) Open House event featured delicious food by Ghada Jadallah of A Dash of Salt & Pepper (on Cross Creek Blvd.), as well as a Greater Wesley Chapel Chamber of Commerce Ribbon Cutting.

The new office, which is much larger and has more private treatment, rehab and massage therapy rooms than New Tampa Chiro’s now-closed old office (which was next to the Super Target on Bruce B. Downs Blvd., or BBD), is elegant, comfortable and definitely a lot more functional.

“My staff, my family and I are definitely all happier here,” Dr. Scheu said during the event. “Our patients are having no problem finding us and we’re not missing out on much walk-in traffic because there never really was very much of it at our old location.”

North Tampa Behavioral Health Opens To Patients

By Matt Wiley,

As of October 1, North Tampa Behavioral Health (NTBH), the area’s newest medical facility, officially is open to patients.

The 53,000-sq.-ft., 75-bed facility, which is located on S.R. 56 about a half mile east of Mansfield Blvd. on an outparcel of the Wiregrass Ranch Development of Regional Impact (DRI), serves the mental health needs of the surrounding community, providing care for geriatric, general adult, and dual diagnosis patients who may check into the facility themselves, be checked in by family members or other providers for emotional or psychiatric concerns, or be transported to the facility under the Florida Mental Health Act, more commonly known as the “Baker” Act, which allows for a person to be involuntarily committed for up to 72 hours if there is evidence that the person is a danger to themselves or to others.

The facility also can receive Florida Substance Abuse & Impairment (aka, the “Marchman”) Act patients. Those who fall into the Marchman Act category are subject to the same treatment as Baker Act patients.
